      LV parameters
LVID, per 0.5cm 0.79 0.54-0.99 0.049* LVEF, per 5% 0.72 0.60-0.88 0.001*
Table 3: Univariable analysis of factors associated with the composite endpoint. *Statistically significant. DT = drug and toxin; EI = eccentricity index; LVID = left ventricular internal dimension; LVEF = left ventricular ejection fraction; NYHA = New York Heart Association; RVEDAI = right ventricular end-diastolic area index; RVESAI = right ventricular end-systolic area index; RVMPI = right ventricular myocardial performance index; RVSP = right ventricular systolic pressure; SVI = stroke volume index; other abbreviations as in Tables 1 and 2.
Figure 4: C-statistics and Kaplan-Meier Curves for Selected Parameters of RV and RA Function. A: C-statistic between indexes of RV function. B: Five-year Kaplan-Meier curve of RV systolic dysfunction on the basis of RVFAC. C: C-statistic between RA indexes. (D) Five-year Kaplan-Meier curve and severe RA enlargement. *In A and C, the criterion value noted on the graph is the optimal criterion value corresponding with the Youden index J with equal weight given to sensitivity and specificity. aRAEF = active right atrial emptying fractions; pRAEF = passive right atrial emptying fractions; RAI = right atrial area index; other abbreviations as in figures 1, 2, and 3.
