ESC Heart Failure, EarlyView.The figure illustrates the study design and key findings related to right ventricular myocardial work (RVMW) in heart failure with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF) patients with and without pulmonary hypertension (PH). Patients were stratified into two groups: those with PH (n = 53) and those without PH (n = 49), as determined by right heart ...
