Cardiac MRI-derived mean right atrial pressure and its prognostic importance.
Article in Open heart, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
backgroundRight atrial pressure (RAP) is a key variable that cardiac MRI (CMR) cannot currently measure. We aimed to develop a model to estimate mean RAP (mRAP) using CMR and assess the prognostic value of CMR-derived mRAP in an independent patient cohort.
methodsThe derivation cohort consisted of patients investigated for heart failure symptoms with right heart catheterisation and CMR. Right atrial and ventricular CMR measurements were correlated with invasive mRAP to inform multivariable linear regression models incorporating patient characteristics. CMR-derived mRAP was tested as a predictor for clinical outcomes (lower-limb oedema, heart failure hospitalisation and all-cause mortality) on an independent cohort of patients receiving CMR. Both cohorts were derived from hospital registries.
resultsIn the derivation cohort (n=672), invasive mRAP was >8 mm Hg in 56% of patients. Right atrial end-systolic volume (RAESV) had the strongest correlation with invasive mRAP (Pearson's coefficient 0.58, p<0.01). RAESV was as accurate as more complex models for mRAP prediction (p>0.05). CMR-derived mRAP ≥10 mm Hg was better associated with outcomes than mRAP ≥8 mm Hg in the clinical cohort (n=101) with diagnostic power for peripheral oedema (area under the curve (AUC) 0.75, p=0.02) and heart failure hospitalisation (AUC 0.93, p<0.01). Kaplan-Meier analysis demonstrated elevated CMR-derived mRAP (≥10 mm Hg) was associated with reduced survival compared with mRAP <10 mm Hg (χ
conclusionmRAP can be estimated by CMR. Raised CMR-derived mRAP is predictive of lower-limb oedema, heart failure hospitalisation and all-cause mortality.
