Continuous reduction in cerebral oxygenation during endurance exercise in patients with pulmonary arterial hypertension

Continuous reduction in cerebral oxygenation during endurance exercise in patients with pulmonary arterial hypertension

Abstract Background Patients with pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) have lower cerebral blood flow (CBF) and oxygenation compared to healthy sedentary subjects, the latter negatively correlating with exercise capacity during incremental cycling exercise. We hypothesized that patients would also...
