Muhammad Aqib Faizan: New Evidence Supports Optimized Riociguat Use in Pulmonary Hypertension
Muhammad Aqib Faizan, Clinical Intern at District Headquarter Hospital, MTI, DIKhan, shared a post on LinkedIn about a recent article he and his colleagues co-authored, published in Medicine, adding:
“Check out our systematic review and meta-analysis published in Medicine Journal.
Optimizing Riociguat Therapy for Pulmonary Hypertension: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis of Dose Variability, Safety, and Efficacy
I’m proud to have led this collaborative international research effort focused on improving outcomes in patients with pulmonary hypertension.
Key Findings:
- Riociguat significantly improved 6-minute walk distance
- Reduced mean pulmonary arterial pressure
- Lowered pulmonary vascular resistance
- Decreased NT-proBNP levels
- The 2.5 mg three-times-daily dose showed the most consistent benefit
Our findings support personalized dosing strategies to optimize efficacy and safety in pulmonary hypertension management.
Grateful to all my co-authors and mentors for their dedication and teamwork throughout this journey.”
