CMR Left Ventricular Filling Pressure Exhibits Strong Haemodynamic Relevance and Outperforms Echocardiography in Multimodal Heart Failure Assessment.
Article in Journal of cardiovascular development and disease, 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
backgroundLeft ventricular filling pressure (LVFP) is pivotal in heart failure management, yet non-invasive assessment remains challenging. While echocardiography is the first line, cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR) offers enhanced accuracy. This study evaluates the interplay between CMR-derived LVFP and echocardiography, focusing on sex differences and correlations with N-terminal pro-brain natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP).
methodsIn this prospective study, 222 patients with CMR-derived LVFP > 14 mmHg underwent transthoracic echocardiography (TTE) and CMR. Sex-specific CMR equations (incorporating left atrial volume and ventricular mass) were used to estimate pulmonary capillary wedge pressure (PCWP). Correlations between imaging parameters and NT-proBNP were assessed.
resultsCMR-derived LVFP showed no sex-based differences (
conclusionsCMR-derived LVFP is a robust, sex-independent biomarker strongly linked to NT-proBNP, offering superior diagnostic performance over echocardiography. Its integration with echocardiographic indices enhances the non-invasive assessment of cardiac filling pressures, advocating a synergistic imaging approach to refine heart failure management.
