  Figure 1. PRISMA (Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta‐Analyses) flow diagram of study selection. DPG, diastolic pressure gradient; LVAD, left ventricular assistance device; MRI, Magnetic Resonance Imaging; PAC, pulmonary artery compliance; PAH, pulmonary arterial hypertension; PHLHD, pulmonary hypertension due to left heart disease; PVR, pulmonary vascular resistance.

• 

  Figure 2. Forest plots with pooled standardized hazard ratio for hemodynamic variables reported in a continuous way. For each variable, unadjusted and adjusted analysis are reported. CI, confidence interval; DPG, diastolic pressure gradient; HR, hazard ratio; PAC, pulmonary artery compliance; PVR, pulmonary vascular resistance.

• 

  Figure 3. Cumulative metanalysis according to sample size for each hemodynamic variable. CI, confidence interval; DPG, diastolic pressure gradient; HR, hazard ratio; PAC, pulmonary artery compliance; PVR, pulmonary vascular resistance.

• 

  Figure 4. Cumulative metanalysis according to year of publication for each hemodynamic variable. CI, confidence interval; DPG, diastolic pressure gradient; HR, hazard ratio; PAC, pulmonary artery compliance; PVR, pulmonary vascular resistance.

• 

  Figure 5. Forest plots with pooled standardized hazard ratio for hemodynamic variables reported in a dichotomous way. For each variable, unadjusted and adjusted analysis are reported. ACI, confidence interval; DPG, diastolic pressure gradient; HR, hazard ratio; PAC, pulmonary artery compliance; PVR, pulmonary vascular resistance.
