Combined Effects of Pulmonary Hypertension and Heart Valve Calcification on Cardiovascular Outcomes in Maintenance Hemodialysis Patients: A Risk Stratification Study Using Echocardiography
The coexistence of PH and HVC significantly increases cardiovascular risk compared to either condition alone in MHD patients. Echocardiography is a valuable tool for screening and risk stratification in this high-risk population by identifying both PH and HVC.
