Estimated Effects on CMR Parameters Associated With a 20% Increase in IMR (mm Hg/s) Derived From Univariable Models

r Effect of IMR 95% CI P
Univariable associations, early CMR (2 days)
Area at risk, % 0.29 1.07 0.39 to 1.76 0.003
Infarct size, % 0.45 1.84 1.12 to 2.56 <0.001
Myocardial salvage index, % −0.41 −3.42 −4.93 to −1.92 <0.001
Microvascular obstruction, % 0.35 0.37 0.18 to 0.56 <0.001
Hemorrhage, % 0.43 0.28 0.17 to 0.40 <0.001
Left ventricular ejection fraction, % −0.27 −0.80 −1.35 to −0.24 0.005
Univariable associations, late CMR (3 months)
Infarct size, % 0.34 1.13 0.48 to 1.79 <0.001
Myocardial salvage index, % −0.31 −2.46 −4.01 to −0.92 0.002
Left ventricular ejection fraction, % −0.27 −0.77 −1.34 to −0.20 0.009

Results are Pearson correlation coefficients (r) and additive effects.
