Values are mean±SD. Correlation coefficients of simple (r) and multiple (β) regression analysis and P values are displayed. E′mean, average of the peak early velocities of septal and lateral mitral annulus; Ea, effective arterial elastance; PP, pulse pressure; TAC, total arterial compliance; TPR, total peripheral resistance.
