Background Right ventricular (RV) dysfunction is associated with adverse outcomes in patients with pulmonary hypertension (PH). Methods We searched for articles presenting the HR of two-dimensional RVfwLS in PH. Results Twenty articles totalling 2790 subjects were included. HRs were standardised using the within-study SD.

Abstract Aim Functional or secondary tricuspid regurgitation (STR) is the most common phenotype of tricuspid regurgitation (TR) with atrial STR (ASTR) and ventricular STR (VSTR) being recently identified as two distinct entities. ASTR vs. VSTR) are lacking. Patients not matching these criteria were classified as VSTR.

Patients with HFpEF and biatrial myopathy had more atrial fibrillation, poorer left ventricular systolic and diastolic function, more severe pulmonary vascular disease, tricuspid regurgitation, ventricular interdependence and right ventricular dysfunction, and poorer cardiac output reserve with exercise.

Right-sided cardiac damage (rCD) was defined as pulmonary vasculature/tricuspid/right ventricular damage. The extent of cardiac damage was assessed by echocardiography according to an established staging classification. Hospitalization for heart failure (HHF) and/or death served as primary endpoint.

Pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) is characterized by increased pulmonary vascular resistance, imposing overload on the right ventricle (RV) and imbalance of redox state. PAH induction was implemented by a single dose of MCT (60 mg/kg i.p.). Treatment with SFN (2.5 mg/kg/day i.p.)
