The TAPSE/sPAP ratio detects right ventricular-pulmonary arterial uncoupling in CKD, demonstrating excellent discriminatory performance in younger patients but limited utility in older patients.
Does the TAPSE/sPAP ratio accurately detect RV-PA uncoupling and CKD severity across different age groups in patients with chronic kidney disease?
The TAPSE/sPAP ratio is a useful non-invasive marker for RV-PA uncoupling in younger CKD patients, but requires age-specific interpretation due to limited utility in older patients.

TAPSE/sPAP ratio is an independent marker of CKD severity enabling non-invasive detection of RV-PA uncoupling, with excellent discriminatory performance in younger but limited utility in older patients, suggesting that age-specific interpretation and integration with renal biomarkers are recommended.
