Prognostic value of hemodynamics following treatment initiation in pulmonary arterial hypertension
Conclusions: Stroke volume index and right atrial pressure at first follow-up catheterization were the best hemodynamic predictors of death or transplantation. These variables should be further validated as treatment targets in a prospective study.

Hemodynamic effects of different vasodilators in patients with type II pulmonary hypertension (PH)
Conclusions. Inhaled Iloprost causes favorable changes in preload and afterload of the impaired LV and increases its performance in patients with PH associated with LV systolic dysfunction.

Haemodynamics and serial risk assessment in systemic sclerosis associated pulmonary arterial hypertension
The prognostic importance of follow-up haemodynamics and the validity of multidimensional risk assessment are not well established for systemic sclerosis (SSc)-associated pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH). We assessed incident SSc-PAH patients to determine the association between clinical and haemodynamic variables at baseline and first follow-up right heart catheterisation (RHC) with transplant-free survival. RHC variables included cardiac index, stroke volume index (SVI), pulmonary arterial compliance and pulmonary vascular resistance. Risk assessment was performed according to the number of low-risk criteria: functi...
