Survival curves according to the right ventricular global longitudinal strain (RVGLS) of 12%. In patients without pulmonary artery hypertension (left), RVGLS has statistical significance even after the adjustment of left ventricular global longitudinal strain (LVGLS). However, RVGLS fails to have statistical significance after the adjustment of LVGLS (right). Dotted line: unadjusted survival; solid line: adjusted survival for LVGLS. CI indicates confidence interval; HR, hazard ratio; LV, left ventricular; RV, right ventricular.
