HR refers to heart rate; BP refers to systolic blood pressure via the Doppler method. Group 2 (HCM) was excluded from the analysis for the correlation of T4 to each biomarker. IVSd, interventricular septal thickness during diastole; LVPWd, left ventricular caudal wall thickness during diastole; LA:Ao, ratio of left atrial to aortic diameter; FS, fractional shortening; HR, heart rate; BP, systolic blood pressure.
