What the study statuses mean

This study's is highlighted.

Recruitment status, easiest to join first

Recruiting now
This trial is taking on new participants right now.
Not yet recruiting This study
Registered, but not yet taking participants.
By invitation only
Not open to general applications. Only people the study team invites can take part.
Paused
Paused for now. It may or may not start again.
Ongoing
Running, but no longer taking on new participants.
Completed
The trial has finished. Results may not be published yet.
Stopped early
Stopped early, before it reached the end. That can be for many reasons, including safety.
Cancelled
Cancelled before anyone took part.

Expanded access (not trials)

Expanded access
Not a trial. This treatment can be requested outside a study, case by case, for people who qualify.
Expanded access (paused)
Not a trial. The treatment can normally be requested outside a study, but is unavailable right now.
Expanded access (ended)
Not a trial. The treatment could once be requested outside a study, but no longer can.
Approved
The treatment has been approved, so it is available normally rather than through this programme.

When the status isn't known

Details not published
The full record has not been published yet, so there is little to show here.
Status unknown
This status has not been confirmed recently, so it may be out of date.

Summary

This study will measure a specific heart function index in 2,640 healthy adults and people with heart conditions using AI-enhanced 3D ultrasound. The goal is to establish normal ranges and see how this measurement changes in diseases like heart failure and high blood pressure in the lungs. Participants will undergo a non-invasive ultrasound exam, and no treatment is given.

Who can take part

This study's own entry requirements. Only the study team can say for certain whether you qualify.

Who is studied

This study enrolls 5 groups (18-79 years) from clinics/community: Healthy Adults: Han Chinese with normal cardiovascular function (vitals, labs, ECG, echo; no structural heart disease/systemic diseases/poor ultrasound). Pulmonary Hypertension: Diagnosed via right heart catheter (mPAP ≥20 mmHg, 2022 ESC/ERS); excluded if with left heart disease, interfering conditions, organ dysfunction, malignancy, or prior pulmonary surgery. Heart Failure: Meets 2022 AHA/ACC/HFSA criteria; excluded if with significant valvular disease. Tricuspid Regurgitation: Echo-confirmed moderate/severe regurgitation; excluded if with interfering pericardial/arrhythmic issues or congenital heart disease/residual lesions. Atrial Septal Defect: Echo/TEE-confirmed secundum defect (untreated or stable ≥3mo post-op); excluded if with complex congenital heart disease. All undergo standardized clinical/echo assessments for cardiac structure/function.

Healthy Adults Group Inclusion Criteria: * Participants must meet all of the following criteria to be enrolled: 1. Of Han Chinese ethnicity 2. Aged 18-79 years 3. Normal blood pressure (\< 140/90 mmHg) 4. Normal fasting blood glucose 5. Normal blood lipid levels (triglycerides, total cholesterol, low-density lipoprotein, high-density lipoprotein) 6. Normal complete blood count results (hemoglobin concentration, white blood cell count, red blood cell count, platelet count) 7. Normal liver and renal function (alanine transaminase \< 2× upper limit of normal; normal creatinine and blood urea nitrogen) 8. Normal electrocardiogram results (occasional atrial premature beats may be enrolled at the investigator's discretion) 9. No structural heart disease and normal cardiac function confirmed by echocardiography Exclusion Criteria: Participants will be excluded if they meet any of the following criteria: 1. Clinically significant cardiac valve regurgitation (≥ mild severity) 2. Respiratory diseases: acute or chronic respiratory disorders 3. Endocrine diseases: thyroid disease, diabetes mellitus, hyperaldosteronism, pheochromocytoma, etc. 4. Abnormal liver function (alanine transaminase \> 2× upper limit of normal), abnormal renal function (elevated creatinine beyond normal range), or dyslipidemia (elevated triglycerides, total cholesterol, low-density lipoprotein, or high-density lipoprotein) 5. Other systemic diseases: anemia, malignancy, connective tissue disease, large artery/peripheral vascular diseases (aortic dilation, aortic dissection, coarctation of the aorta, Takayasu arteritis, atherosclerosis), etc. 6. Pregnant or lactating women 7. Professional athletes 8. Poor-quality ultrasound images that cannot support parameter measurement and analysis Pulmonary Hypertension Group Inclusion Criteria: Patients must meet all of the following criteria to be enrolled: 1. Aged 18-79 years 2. Confirmed diagnosis via right heart catheterization: mean pulmonary arterial pressure (mPAP) ≥ 20 mmHg, in accordance with the 2022 ESC/ERS guidelines Exclusion Criteria: Patients will be excluded if they meet any of the following criteria: 1. Unable to complete right heart catheterization or pressure-volume loop assessment 2. Complicated with significant left heart disease (left ventricular ejection fraction \[LVEF\] \< 50%, significant mitral valve disease) 3. Pericardial disease or arrhythmias (e.g., atrial fibrillation) that severely impair right heart function evaluation 4. Poor-quality images that prevent accurate measurement of right atrial or right ventricular parameters 5. Concurrent liver or renal disease 6. Concurrent malignancy 7. History of surgical procedures such as pulmonary endarterectomy or balloon pulmonary angioplasty Heart Failure Group Inclusion Criteria: Patients must meet all of the following criteria to be enrolled: 1. Aged 18-79 years 2. Meets the 2022 AHA/ACC/HFSA diagnostic criteria for heart failure Exclusion Criteria: Patients will be excluded if they meet any of the following criteria: 1.Complicated with significant valvular heart disease (e.g., severe mitral regurgitation, severe tricuspid regurgitation, etc.) Tricuspid Regurgitation Group Inclusion Criteria: Patients must meet all of the following criteria to be enrolled: 1.
