Abstract

The authors would like to inform you that there were errors in the first column of Table 1, which incorrectly listed “min” (minutes) instead of “mon” (months).Table 1Transthoracic Echocardiography From 7 Months Before Pregnancy to 6 Months After DeliveryEnd-diastolic Heart Chamber SizeMain Pulmonary Artery (cm)Valvular Abnormalities and Estimated PAPTAPSE (cm)Right Ventricular Fractional Area ChangePericardial EffusionLA (cm)LV (cm)RA (cm)RV (cm)TRV (m/s)PASP (mmHg)7 mon before pregnancy3.14.43.43.63.9////–G28 w33.46.36.13.75.21182.2/++G30 w3.84.1774.44.3852.223%++1 wk after operation3.13.75.254.24.6961.032%+2 mon after operation3.13.74.94.63.84.699/29%–/+6 mon after operation2.835.15.13.85.6125/13%–/+NOTE.

Patients with SLE-PAH tend to have lower survival rates and worse quality of life than other subgroups of PAH. Full-Text PDF
