Comparison of multivariate Cox-regression models including LGE, LVEDV/BSA and LAS

Comparison of multivariate Cox-regression models; n = 146
Model 1 Model 2 Chi2 difference p
LVEDV/BSA LVEDV/BSA (ml/m2) + LGE present 4.26 <0.05
LVEDV/BSA (ml/m2) + LGE present LVEDV/BSA (ml/m2) + LGE present + LAS (%) 9.33 <0.005

Cox regression analysis revealed a significant increase in the predictive power when adding LAS to a model including LGE and LVEDV/BSA (significant p-values in bold letters)
