Sex-based differences in pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) are known, but the contribution to disease measures is understudied. We examined whether sex was associated with baseline 6-minute-walk distance (6MWD), hemodynamics, and functional class. We conducted a secondary analysis of participant-level data from randomized clinical trials of investigational PAH therapies conducted between 1998 and 2014 and provided by the U.

Background: Obesity is increasingly prevalent in pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) but is associated with improved survival, creating an "obesity paradox" in PAH. It is unknown if the improved outcomes could be attributable to obese patients deriving a greater benefit from PAH therapies.
Research Question: Does BMI modify treatment effectiveness in PAH?
Study Design And Methods: Using individual participant data, a meta-analysis was conducted of phase III, randomized, placebo-controlled trials of treatments for PAH submitted for approval to the U.

Background: Pericardial fat has been associated with adverse cardiovascular outcomes through adiposity-associated inflammation and insulin resistance, which in turn are linked to cardiac dysfunction. We sought to evaluate the association between pericardial fat volume and cardiac structure and function in adults without baseline cardiovascular disease.
Methods: We analyzed data from the Multi-Ethnic Study of Atherosclerosis.
