Yes, the pressure generated (under normal anatomic conditions, mind you) is higher in the left ventricle than the right. This is due to the higher systemic pressures being pumped against by the left ventricle, compared to the relatively low pulmonary vascular pressures opposing the right ventricular output.
The main pumping chamber of the heart, the left ventricle, typically enlarges first. As the pressure rises in the left ventricle, the left atrium gradually enlarges as well. When left atrial enlargement occurs due to elevated blood pressure, it is associated with an increased risk of heart attack and stroke.
