OR indicates odd ratio; CI, confidence interval; PVC, premature ventricular complex; LVH, left ventricular hypertrophy; E/E′, the peak mitral flow velocity of the early rapid filling wave/early diastolic mitral annulus velocity; MR, mitral regurgitation; NT-proBNP, N-terminal pro-B type natriuretic peptide.
