In a research article published recently in the Journal of Internal Medicine, the authoritative journal in the field of internal medicine, researchers aimed to describe the characteristics, treatment patterns and prognosis of a group of HIV-pulmonary hypertension patients and compare them with a group of equivalent idiopathic patients.

The researchers also analyzed changes in treatment patterns in HIV-pulmonary hypertension patients after 2010 and their impact on OS .
