  • Data are presented as mean±sd, unless otherwise stated. mPAPrest: mean pulmonary artery pressure at rest; PVRrest: pulmonary vascular resistance at rest; TPRrest: total pulmonary resistance at rest; mPAPmax: mean pulmonary artery at maximal exercise; PVRmax: pulmonary vascular resistance at maximal exercise; TPRmax: total pulmonary resistance at maximal exercise; AUC: area under the receiver operating curve.
