Footnote: Univariate variables with p < 0.05 were entered into the multivariate model using a stepwise approach. * Indicates statistical significance (p < 0.05). Model 1 included LV twist, whereas Model 2 incorporated LV torsion for model construction. LVOTO: left ventricular outflow tract obstruction; LVEDVI: left ventricular end diastolic volume index, LVESVI: left ventricular end systolic volume index, LVEF: left ventricular ejection fraction, 3DE: three-dimensional echocardiography, AML: anterior mitral leaflet; GLS: global longitudinal strain, GCS: global circumferential strain, GAS: global area strain, GRS: global radial strain
