Abstract: Ipertensione arteriosa polmonare: stima della casistica italiana e considerazioni sull'impatto sul budget dell'introduzione di tadalafil causa della veloce degradazione a opera della fosfodiesterasi (PDE), in particolare quella di tipo 5, che idrolizza la cGMP, inibendone l'azione vasodilatatoria. Inibitori della PDE-5 come tadalafil, potrebbero quindi prolungare gli effetti vasodilatatori ed antiproliferativi del cGMP.Obiettivo delle analisi qui presentate è effettuare una stima epidemiologica della IAP in It… Show more

Indeed, the Guidi and Mignini5 study indicated a prevalence range of 39–51 cases per 1 million inhabitants, in relation to the use of the lowest dose (20 mg three times a day) or the highest dose (80 mg three times a day) of sildenafil; the annual cost (for the period 2007–2009) was €876 969.38.…”
