| 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 | 0.01 |
| Conclusion | PASP and RVD were found to be positively correlated with plasma NO levels. |
