Arrhythmic risk factors: number of arrhythmic risk factors, n ± SD; LV (left ventricular) mass index, expressed in g/m²± SD; HyT2, presence of myocardial signal hyperintensity in T2-STIR image, expressed as n(%); Maximal wall thickness in mm ± SD; Extent of LGE, late gadolinium enhancement, in % of LV mass.
