The clinical characteristics and outcomes of patients with pulmonary hypertension in association with hyperthyroid state: A systematic review.

PHTN can be present at the initial diagnosis of HTH, which is associated with better outcomes of PHTN. There is a clear female preponderance in the development of PHTN. However, resolution rates seem to be better in males. Although TRAB is associated with the development of PHTN, it does not seem to affect the outcomes. PHTN in patients with HTH does not need any specific management, with >90% resolution with antithyroid therapy. Whether any specific antithyroid therapy has a better outcome in PHTN needs to be explored prospectively.
