A Representative images of PA muscularization by Elastic-Van Gieson staining. B Quantitative analysis of the vascular wall thickness and C percentage of PA muscularization. Values are expressed as mean ± SD, n = 4 for each group. Two-sided P value was calculated from one-way ANOVA with Bonferroni post hoc analysis. *P < 0.05 vs. Control group. †P < 0.05 vs. PH-Control group. #P < 0.05 vs. PH-RFA group. FM full muscularization, NM none muscularization, PA pulmonary artery, PH pulmonary hypertension, PM partial muscularization, RFA radiofrequency ablation, SBRT stereotactic body radiotherapy. Source data are provided as a Source Data file.
