The hypothesis that a relationship exists between body mass index (BMI), functional class, and 6 min walk distance (6MWD) in Group 1-pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) was examined. Analysis of data from the UK National Cohort Study for heritable pulmonary arterial/idiopathic PAH suggests increased BMI is a predictor of worse functional class and shorter 6MWD; increased body-weight in mice and man may be associated with increased estrogen metabolism.
对第1组肺动脉高压(PAH)患者体重指数(BMI)、功能分级和6分钟步行距离(6MWD)之间关系的假设进行了检验。对英国遗传性肺动脉/特发性PAH国家队列研究的数据分析表明,BMI升高是功能分级较差和6MWD较短的预测指标;小鼠和人类体重增加可能与雌激素代谢增加有关。
