Table 2. Clinical characteristics.

Variables Overall (n = 446) CVD (n = 133) Non-CVD (n = 313) P-value
Data are presented as means ± SD or n (%). *Presented as median (interquartile range). Presented as follow-up on postoperative day 1. CVD: cardiovascular disease; E/e’avg: the ratio of early diastolic mitral inflow velocity to the averaged value of early diastolic mitral annulus velocities obtained from the septal and lateral side of mitral annulus; LVEF: left ventricular ejection fraction; MINS: myocardial injury after non-cardiac surgery; PACE: perioperative adverse cardiac event; PTE: pulmonary thromboembolism.
