Impact of smoking on diagnosis and survival of pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) and chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension (CTEPH) patients, Pulmonology, 2026

Exposure to cigarette smoke is a well-recognised risk factor for endothelial dysfunction, which causes changes in pulmonary vascular architecture and can lead to pulmonary hypertension — and notably, these changes occur at an early stage of smoking-related lung disease, long before airway obstruction develops. Despite this, the specific impact of smoking on pulmonary arterial hypertension

Treatment paradigm shifts in pulmonary arterial hypertension: evidence from a phase 3 study in Asia on sotatercept, JACC, March 3, 2026

A Japanese study has confirmed that sotatercept works just as well in Asian patients, even though pulmonary arterial hypertension presents somewhat differently in the Asian population: patients tend to have longer disease duration, more severe baseline profiles, and are more frequently on intensive triple therapy including parenteral prostacyclin. This was a regional Phase 3, open-label
