High-altitude pulmonary hypertension is associated with a free radical-mediated reduction in pulmonary nitric oxide bioavailability
First ever human study to measure the rate of free radical exchange across the human lungs during hypoxia which led to invited plenary talks at international conferences (International Symposium on Pulmonary Function in Health and Disease, Giessen, Germany, 2011; Recent Trends and Future Perspectives in High-Altitude Pulmonary Research, Leh, Ladakh, India, 2010). Resulted in an honorary Fellowship of the Pulmonary Vascular Research Institute (first Welshman). Cited in a state-of-the-art review [Beall, C.M. et al. (2011). Free Radical Biology and Medicine 52: 1123-1134], “must read” by F1000Prime (Highlighted Paper) and accompanied by an editorial in the Journal of Physiology (http://jp.physoc.org/content/588/23/4603.full?sid=ecceea2a-cf8d-4b05-a872-956b4bbe5a6c).
