Growth factors and interleukin-6 across the lung circulation in pulmonary hypertension
Nedim Selimovic,Claes-Håkan Bergh,Bert Andersson,Egidija Sakiniene,Hans Carlsten,Bengt Rundqvist +5 more
TL;DR: The findings indicate increased release and/or decreased clearance of growth factors at the lung vascular level, which may contribute to vascular remodelling in PAH.

Assessment of Pulmonary Vascular Resistance by Doppler Echocardiography in Patients With Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension
Nedim Selimovic,Bengt Rundqvist,Claes-Håkan Bergh,Bert Andersson,Sofia Petersson,Lena Johansson,Odd Bech-Hanssen +6 more
TL;DR: A comprehensive hemodynamic assessment that includes CO, TPG and PVR can be provided by Doppler echocardiography in patients with severe pulmonary hypertension.

Cytomegalovirus infection and disease reduce 10-year cardiac allograft vasculopathy-free survival in heart transplant recipients
Inger Johansson,Rune Andersson,Vanda Friman,Nedim Selimovic,Lars Hanzen,Salmir Nasic,Ulla Nyström,Vilborg Sigurdardottir +7 more
TL;DR: CAV-free survival was significantly reduced in patients with CMV disease and asymptomatic CMV infection compared to patients withoutCMV infection, highlighting the importance of close monitoring of CMV viral load and appropriate therapeutic strategies for preventing asymPTomatic CMv infection.
Can Pulmonary Hypertension and Increased Pulmonary Vascular Resistance Be Ruled in and Ruled Out by Echocardiography
Odd Bech-Hanssen,Kristjan Karason,Bengt Rundqvist,Entela Bollano,Fredrik Lindgren,Nedim Selimovic +5 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors evaluated the diagnostic ability of echocardiography to detect pulmonary hypertension and increased pulmonary vascular resistance (PVR) in 118 patients investigated within 48 hours of right heart catheterization.

Pulmonary hemodynamics as predictors of mortality in patients awaiting lung transplantation.
Nedim Selimovic,Bert Andersson,Claes-Håkan Bergh,G Martensson,Folke Nilsson,Odd Bech-Hanssen,Bengt Rundqvist +6 more
TL;DR: Patients with increased PVR and a lower FVC % of predicted awaiting LTx should be considered for a higher organ allocation priority and assessment of pulmonary hemodynamics needs to be considered during evaluation for LTx.
