Exclusion criteria

Exclusion criteria: The exclusion criteria were as follows: patients with known diseases that may affect pulmonary circulation, such as heart failure with left ventricular ejection fraction <50%, hypertensive cardiomyopathy, arrhythmia with significant tachycardia, or bradycardia that may affect cardiac output and systematic blood pressure pulmonary diseases, including chronic obstructive pulmonary diseases, lung cancer, pulmonary fibrosis, severe asthma, or acute respiratory distress syndrome. Furthermore, patients who required surgeries that may affect pulmonary circulation or arterial blood pressure were also excluded, including patients who required surgeries for thorax diseases and heart diseases.
