Abstract

Pulmonary hypertension (PH) is defined as mean pulmonary artery pressure (mPAP) 25 mmHg or greater at rest; this measurement is obtained during right heart catheterization. The exact prevalence of PH in the U.S. is unknown. Advances in hemodynamic studies of the right heart side and pulmonary circulations has helped improve our understanding of this condition. This better understanding aids the development of treatment agents aimed at improving quality of life, morbidity and mortality. Awareness of this condition and understanding the classification of PH and the available treatment modalities is crucial hence we aim to briefly review the classification, diagnosis and treatment of PH in this article.

Attention Score in Context

Attention Score in Context

This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 1. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 29 August 2019.
All research outputs
#18,026,894
of 23,154,520 outputs
Outputs from South Dakota Medicine
#66
of 189 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#247,068
of 350,425 outputs
Outputs of similar age from South Dakota Medicine
#2
of 5 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 23,154,520 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 19th percentile – i.e., 19% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.
So far Altmetric has tracked 189 research outputs from this source. They typically receive a little more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 5.2. This one has gotten more attention than average, scoring higher than 59% of its peers.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 350,425 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one is in the 24th percentile – i.e., 24% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
We're also able to compare this research output to 5 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one has scored higher than 3 of them.
