P<0.001,
=P<0.05 and NS nonsignificant for mean differences from white women.
RTepi is epicardial repolarization time and RTxd a representative value of subendocardial repolarization time.
APDepi = RTepi - ETepi, and APDendo = RTxd - ETendo, where ETepi and ETendo are epicardial excitation time (=QRp) and endocardial excitation time (taken as 10 ms).
QRp = interval from QRSonset to the peak of QRS vector magnitude curve.
RNDPV = QRS nondipolar voltages (square roots of the total variance of components 4 to 8 from singular value decomposition).
θ(Rm|Tm) = spatial angle between the mean QRS and T vectors.
θ(Rp|Tp) = spatial angle between the peak QRS and T vectors.
θ(Tp|Tref) = spatial angle between the Tp vector and the reference T vector (Tref), signifying spatial deviation angle of repolarization direction from the direction of the normal repolarization sequence.
θ(Tinit|Term) = spatial angle between the mean initial and terminal T vectors from quintiles 1-3 and quintiles 4-5 of global T wave, respectively.
θ(Tinit|Tref) = spatial angles between the mean initial T vector and Tref vector.
θ(Tterm|Tref) = spatial angle between the mean terminal T vector and Tref vector.
Symbol 'V' with SToV, ToV and TpV signifies vector magnitude of STo, To and Tp, respectively.
ToV/TpV is the magnitude ratio of ToV and TpV vectors.
