Abstract | Background: Blood lipids are dysregulated in pulmonary hypertension (PH). Lower high-density lipoproteins cholesterol (HDL-C) and low-density lipoproteins cholesterol (LDL-C) are associated with disease severity and death in PH. Right ventricle (RV) dysfunction and failure are the major determinants of morbidity and mortality in PH. This study aims to test the hypothesis that dyslipidemia is associated with RV dysfunction in PH. Methods: We enrolled healthy control subjects (n=12) and individuals with PH (n=30) (age: 18-65 years old). Clinical characteristics, echocardiogram, 2-[18F] fluoro-2-deoxy-D-glucose positron emission tomography (PET) scan, blood lipids, including total cholesterol (TC), triglycerides (TG), lipoproteins (LDL-C and HDL-C), and N-terminal pro-B type Natriuretic Peptide (NT-proBNP) were determined. Results: Individuals with PH had lower HDL-C [PH, 41±12; control, 56±16 mg/dL, Conclusion: These findings confirm dyslipidemia is associated with worse right ventricular function in PH. |
