Circulating Intercellular Adhesion Molecule as a Novel Marker of Pulmonary Hypertension in Newborn.
Background: IntercellularAQ1 adhesion molecules (ICAMs) are released from the endothelium in response to shear stress. Their role in persistent pulmonary hypertension (PPHN) remains un-investigated.
Results: Right and left ventricular function was depressed in PPHN cases. Tricuspid annular plane systolic excursion was reduced (Cases 8±1 vs. Controls 11±3.5). ICAM was elevated in cases (332±96 vs. 208 ±36).
Conclusion: ICAM is a sensitive PPHN marker. Elevated ICAM may result from endothelial damage or contribute to PPHN pathogenesis. Further studies are needed to confirm these results and explore this relationship.
期刊介绍:
The general objective of Indian Pediatrics is "To promote the science and practice of Pediatrics." An important guiding principle has been the simultaneous need to inform, educate and entertain the target audience. The specific key objectives are:
-To publish original, relevant, well researched peer reviewed articles on issues related to child health.
-To provide continuing education to support informed clinical decisions and research.
-To foster responsible and balanced debate on controversial issues that affect child health, including non-clinical areas such as medical education, ethics, law, environment and economics.
-To achieve the highest level of ethical medical journalism and to produce a publication that is timely, credible and enjoyable to read.
