Model 1 was adjusted for demographic data. Model 2 was adjusted for demographic data and cardiovascular risk factors. Model 3 was adjusted for demographic data, cardiovascular risk factors, and CMR parameters. Model 4 was adjusted for demographic data, cardiovascular risk factors, CMR parameters, and LV LGE extent. Demographic data included age and sex. Cardiovascular risk factors included body mass index, hypertension, dyslipidemia, diabetes, familiarity for coronary artery disease, and smoking status. CMR parameters included LVEF and LV volumes. Bold indicates statistical significance
