Meanings of pulmonary vasoconstriction in anglès

These results indicate that pulmonary vasoconstriction often occurs after pulmonary contusion.

Free radicals act on the nitric oxide pathway reducing cGMP and promoting pulmonary vasoconstriction.

Terguride inhibited proliferation of PASMCs and abolished 5-HT-induced pulmonary vasoconstriction.

However, this pulmonary vasoconstriction may, when severe, lead to acute right-sided heart failure and systemic hypotension.

Exercise-induced PH is caused either by pulmonary vasoconstriction, pulmonary vascular remodeling, or by increased upstream transmission of pulmonary venous pressure.

Bleomycin-induced lung injury selectively attenuates hypoxic pulmonary vasoconstriction, an effect that does not appear to be mediated by platelet-activating factor.

Optimal oxygenation should meet oxygen demand to the tissues and avoid hypoxic pulmonary vasoconstriction (HPV) while preventing oxidative stress.

Both acutely reversible pulmonary vasoconstriction and pathological remodeling (especially medial hypertrophy and intimal hyperplasia) account for increased PVR when present.

Whether asthma and pulmonary hypertension were causally linked is unknown, but further work seems indicated to elucidate the relationship between bronchoconstriction and pulmonary vasoconstriction.

We suggest that studying the effects of therapeutic interventions on intrapulmonary shunt fraction may be a useful model in vivo of human hypoxic pulmonary vasoconstriction.

Hypoxic pulmonary vasoconstriction (HPV) is a compensatory physiological mechanism in the lung that optimizes the matching of ventilation to perfusion and thereby maximizes gas exchange.
