  1. mPAP = mean pulmonary arterial pressure; PAH = pulmonary arterial hypertension; CTEPH = chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension; d-ROMS = derivative of reactive oxygen molecules; MDA = malondialdehyde; BAP = biological antioxidant potential; SOD = superoxide dismutase; ADMA = asymmetric dimethylarginine.
  2. *The difference with control is statistically significant.
