Pulmonary artery compliance in different forms of pulmonary hypertension
Conclusion PAC was similar between PH groups and was not an independent predictor of transplant-free survival in PAH. RC time was different between PH subgroups, challenging RC time constancy. Trial registration number NCT04071327

Relationship between aetiology and left ventricular systolic dysfunction in hypertrophic cardiomyopathy
Conclusions In adults with HCM, LV systolic dysfunction is more frequent in those with rare phenocopies. When combined with age at presentation, it is a marker for specific aetiologies and is associated with poorer long-term survival.

RV-pulmonary arterial coupling predicts outcome in patients referred for pulmonary hypertension
Conclusions The adequacy of RV functional adaptation to afterload predicts survival in patients referred for PH. Whether this can simply be evaluated using RV volumetric imaging will require additional confirmation.
