Research from Amsterdam University Medical Center Broadens Understanding of Pulmonary Hypertension (Low nailfold capillary density in patients with pulmonary arterial hypertension and chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension: biomarker of...).

The article focuses on the association between nailfold capillary density and pulmonary hypertension, exploring its potential as a biomarker. Topics include the comparison of capillary density in pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) and chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension (CTEPH) versus controls, the relationship of capillary density with disease severity and clinical worsening, and the impact of pulmonary endarterectomy (PEA).
