1 Pulsatile haemodynamic parameters are predictors of survival in paediatric pulmonary arterial hypertension  Johannes M. Douwes, Marcus T.R. Roofthooft, Beatrijs Bartelds, Melle D. Talsma, Hans L. Hillege, Rolf M.F. Berger  International Journal of Cardiology  Volume 168, Issue 2, Pages (September 2013) DOI: /j.ijcard Copyright © 2013 Elsevier Ireland Ltd Terms and Conditions

2 Fig. 1 PSVi and PACi for WHO-functional class subgroups. Scatter plot with indications of median and interquartile ranges of PSVi and PACi, respectively, for WHO-functional class subgroups. P-values derived from Kruskal–Wallis test. PSVi, pulmonary stroke volume index; PACi, pulmonary arterial compliance index; WHO-functional class, World Health Organization functional class.

3 Fig. 2 Survival of the study group. Kaplan–Meier curves showing the survival of all included PAH patients (left) and stratified for diagnosis subgroup (right). PAH, pulmonary arterial hypertension; PAH-CHD, pulmonary arterial hypertension associated with congenital heart disease; IPAH/HPAH, idiopathic or hereditary pulmonary arterial hypertension.

4 Fig. 3 A) Survival stratified for PSVi and PACi. Kaplan–Meier curves with log rank tests showing the survival of all included PAH patients stratified for the median of pulmonary stroke volume index (PSVi, left) and pulmonary arterial compliance index (PACi, right). B) Survival stratified for mSAP and heart rate Kaplan–Meier curves with log rank tests showing the survival of all included PAH patients stratified for the median of mean systemic arterial pressure (mSAP, left) and heart rate (HR, right).
