Ejection fraction
rEF EF ≤ 40% (n = 26) Borderline pEF 40% < EF < 50% (n = 40) pEF 50% ≥ EF (n = 15)
Heart failure

Yes, NYHA Class II, n (%) 25 (96.2) 37 (92.5) 7 (46.7)
No 0 0 0
Ejection fraction (%)
N 26 40 15
Mean (SD) 37.4 (2.7) 44.8 (2.6) 58.1 (7. 8)
Median 38.0 45.0 56.0
Quartiles (25th, 75th) 36.0, 39.0 42.0, 47.0 51.0, 60.0

EF, ejection fraction; HF, heart failure; NYHA, New York Heart Association; pEF, preserved ejection fraction; rEF, reduced ejection fraction; SD, standard deviation.
