Plasma Protein Biomarkers of Spirometry Measures of Impaired Lung Function.
Journal Article Chest · June 2025 BACKGROUND: Impaired pulmonary function carries significant risks for lung, cardiovascular, and metabolic disorders. RESEARCH QUESTION: Can circulating protein biomarkers of pulmonary function provide insight into the pathophysiologic features of lung func ...

Journal Article Physiol Rep · May 2025 Obesity and metabolic dysfunction are associated with pulmonary vascular remodeling, yet molecular mechanisms remain poorly understood. We sought to study trans-right ventricular (RV) metabolite gradients to elucidate potential molecular pathways operant a ...

Journal Article Circ Heart Fail · May 2024 BACKGROUND: Although heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) has become the predominant heart failure subtype, it remains clinically under-recognized. HFpEF diagnosis is particularly challenging in the setting of obesity given the limitation ... Full text Link to item CiteEducation, Training & Certifications
