eNO, CANO, and EBT have been evaluated in three groups of PH patients. Interestingly EBT reduction was correlated with PAPm increase, whereas FeNO was higher in COPD patients and CANO in PAH and COPD groups. Further studies are needed to clarify EBT, FeNO, and CANO roles as biomarkers in the monitoring of patients with PH.
