Multivariable analysis between gender and structural and functional parameters of the left ventricle after myocardial infarction

	Standardized coefficient β	t-value	p value
Gender – MI sizea	- 0.13	- 0.93	0,9
Gender – LVDAb	0.530	5.533	< 0.001
Gender – LVSAc	0.483	4.931	< 0.001
Gender – FACd	- 0.14	- 0.174	0.8

^aModel 1: multivariate linear regression for association of gender and myocardial infarction (MI) size;

^bModel 2: multivariate linear regression for association of gender and left ventricular diastolic area (LVDA) after adjusting for MI size and body weight;

^cModel 3: multivariate linear regression for association of gender and left ventricular systolic area (LVSA) after adjusting for MI size and body weight;

^dModel 4: multivariate linear regression for association of gender and fractional area change (FAC) after adjusting for MI size, body weight, LVDA, and LVSA.
