IpcPH associated with left heart disease can lead to pulmonary vascular remodeling and eventually CpcPH. Conversely, precapillary PH may be diagnosed in the presence of cardiovascular comorbidities, including left heart disease. Atrial functional impairment is a frequent finding in cardiopulmonary disease, reflecting both intrinsic atrial cardiomyopathy and congestion. Consequently, we sought to investigate this across the PH spectrum.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>METHODS:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Patients referred to both right heart catheterization and cardiovascular magnetic resonance imaging were enrolled in this monocentric registry.
