| Objective | This study aims to estimate plasma levels of acylated ghrelin in children with pulmonary hypertension (PH) associated with congenital heart disease (CHD) and to correlate the levels of acylated ghrelin with endothelin-1 (ET-1), nitric oxide (NO), and clinical hemodynamic parameters. |
| p Value | 0.046 |
| Conclusion | Plasma ET-1 levels also correlated positively with PASP and RVDP. |
