β coeff. are standardized regression coefficient; partial r2 are coefficient of partial determination; total r2 are the overall r2 of the multivariable model. The multivariable analysis is adjusted for age, sex, dyslipidaemia, diabetes, metabolic syndrome, antihypertensive medication, creatinine level, baseline AS severity (i.e. peak aortic jet velocity), and square root of baseline aortic valve calcification.

AVC, aortic valve calcification; AVCdensity, aortic valve calcification indexed to cross-sectional area of the aortic annulus; SBP, systolic blood pressure; other abbreviations as in Table 1.
