Figure 3

The relation between the ratio of the pulmonary capillary blood volume as percentage of predicted and the diffusion capacity of the alveolar capillary membrane as percentage of predicted (Vc%/Dm%) and the pulmonary vascular resistance (PVR) and the mean pulmonary artery pressure (mPpa) in patients with systemic sclerosis-associated pulmonary arterial hypertension (SScPAH) (r 2 = 0.16, p = 0.23 and r 2 = 0.07, p = 0.52, respectively).
