Additionally, for patients who did not undergo RHC, the criteria included a moderate or high probability of PH based on echocardiography, with a tricuspid regurgitation velocity > 2.8 m/s, or a tricuspid regurgitation velocity <= 2.8 m/s but with at least two additional echocardiographic signs from different categories (e.g., ventricular, pulmonary artery, or inferior vena cava and right atrium)
Exclusion criteria
Exclusion criteria: 1: Patients with right ventricular outflow tract obstruction (such as pulmonary valve stenosis) 2: Lack of required diagnostic evidence (such as echocardiography)
