The present publications' review considers perspectives of application of statins under pulmonary hypertension. Nowadays, there are quite encouraging experimental data concerning positive versatile effect of statins on lesser blood circulation. The results of study of this issue with participation of patients are singular and continue to be controversial still. The clinical substantiation of application of new pharmaceuticals effecting molecular mechanisms of pathogenesis of pulmonary hypertension (re-modeling, endothelial dysfunction, function of right ventricle) requires carrying out of large investigations placebo-controlled by design and statistical processing. Precisely in this context the application of statins is of interest as potentially strategic direction in treatment of pulmonary hypertension.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
