Pulmonary arterial hypertension is a severe and progressive disorder affecting the blood vessels in the lungs. Typically, symptoms first appear at around 30-40 years of age and, without treatment, can lead to fatal heart disease within a few years. Genetic studies over the past decade have identifie...
