Data are showed as the mean value ± SD or % of subjects. ICM, ischemic cardiomyopathy; NYHA, New York Heart Association; BMI, body mass index; EF, ejection fraction; FS, fractional shortening; LVESD, left ventricular end-systolic diameter; LVEDD, left ventricular end-diastolic diameter; LV mass index, left ventricular mass index.
