Figure 1

Adjusted association of left atrial emptying fraction (LAEF) and left atrial expansion index (LAEi) for the composite endpoint of cardiovascular (CV) death or hospitalization for heart failure (HF). The gold bars represent the distribution of LAEF and LAEi measures reported as percentages. The solid black lines represent an estimation by Poisson regression of the association between LAEF and LAEi and the outcome after adjusting for age, sex, diabetes, heart rate, history of HF, history of myocardial revascularization, atrial fibrillation pattern, allocated therapy, left ventricular (LV) end-diastolic volume index, LV mass index, LV ejection fraction and E/e′. Dashed lines represent 95% confidence intervals. Incidence rates are displayed on the y-axis. py, person-years.
