Table 3.

Multivariable‐adjusted Association of Statistically Significant Biomarkers With Prevalence of Each Echocardiographic Outcome

Composite (574/2460) LVH_80 (489/2460) LVSD_MILDGR (142/2460) LVSD_MODSEV (51/2460)
BNP 1.29 (1.15 to 1.44)** 1.25 (1.11 to 1.41)** 1.43 (1.17 to 1.73)** 1.79 (1.30 to 2.47)**
GDF‐15 1.14 (1.004 to 1.28)* NS 1.41 (1.16 to 1.70)** NS
hsTnI 1.18 (1.06 to 1.31)* 1.22 (1.09 to 1.36)** NS NS

Values represent odds ratios (95% confidence intervals) per 1 SD increment in log‐biomarker. ST2 was not significantly associated with any outcome. BNP indicates B‐type natriuretic peptide; GDF‐15, growth differentiation factor‐15; hsTnI, high‐sensitivity troponin I; LVH, left ventricular hypertrophy; LVSD, left ventricular systolic dysfunction; LVSD_MILDGR, mild/greater LVSD; LVSD_MODSEV, moderate/severe LVSD; NS, no statistically significant association.
