Figure 1. Kaplan–Meier analysis of transplant‐free and transplant‐censored Survival.

Figure 1

A, Kaplan‐Meier survival analysis of transplant‐free survival stratified by age and genetic testing result. “Variant” denotes the presence of a DCM‐causing variant on genetic testing. Patients who presented with DCM at >1 year of age and who had an identified causal genetic variant have significantly worse transplant‐free survival when compared with those of a similar age without an identified genetic variant (P=0.0139, log‐rank test). Dashed lines denote the 95% confidence interval. B, Kaplan‐Meier survival analysis of transplant‐censored survival demonstrates that differences in (A) are largely driven by the rate of transplantation. C, Forest plot of multivariate Cox proportional hazards modeling for transplant‐free survival and selected covariates. Age but not DCM variant status is an independent risk factor for death or transplant. DCM indicates dilated cardiomyopathy.
