Variables are expressed as the mean ± standard deviation

Variables marked in bold have their ANOVA p value < 0.05

P values of the Dunnet post hoc test < 0.05 are marked in bold

LGE +, positive late gadolinium enhancement; LGE–, negative late gadolinium enhancement; LV, left ventricle; EF, ejection fraction; GLS, global longitudinal strain; GCS, global circumferential strain; GRS, global radial strain; MAPSE, mitral annular plane systolic excursion
