Importance of non-invasive ACM established diagnostic variables and miR-320a in Arrhythmogenic CardioMyopathy (ACM) vs. Idiopathic Ventricular Tachycardia (IVT) classification. (A) Boxplots show the distribution of mean decreases in Gini index for non-invasive ACM diagnostic criteria and miR-320a (green boxplot), ranked based on the importance in data partition as calculated by the Random Forests procedure. Data are shown as median[Q1–Q3]: global/regional dysfunction and structural alteration, 5.75[5.40–6.39]; miR-320a, 2.72[2.43–3.12]; arrhythmias, 2.45[2.10–2.79]; repolarization abnormalities, 2.17[1.68–2.59]; depolarization abnormalities, 2.03[1.65–2.38]; family history, 0.66[0.48–0.86]. (B) The Area Under the Curves (AUC) of the ROC analysis was used to evaluate diagnostic accuracy of selected variables used to classify ACM vs. IVT patients and the added value by circulating miR-320a expression. ECG abnormalities: depolarization and repolarization abnormality criteria.
