p < 0.05.

b

The range of p values, which are from the comparisons for all pairs of AS severity (mild, moderate, and severe-critical) using the Tukey-Kramer honestly significant difference test.

AS = aortic stenosis; CAD = coronary artery disease; DM = diabetes mellitus; HL = hyperlipidemia; HTN = hypertension; WML-ILL = white matter lesions and ischemia-like lesions.
