Table 3. Comparison of myocardial flow reserve with a matched control group.

To compare global myocardial flow reserve in the study cohort with individuals without a history of thoracic irradiation therapy, a control group was formed via 1:1 matching on age, sex, the absence or presence of ischemic heart disease, and Morise score. RT = radiation therapy.

	RT Patients (n=35)	Control Patients (n=35)	p-value
Age, years	66.0 ± 10.6	65.5 ± 10.3	0.85
Female, n (%)	25 (71.4%)	25 (71.4%)	1.00
Ischemic heart disease, n (%)	6 (17.1%)	6 (17.1)	1.00
Morise score	9.9 ± 2.7	9.9 ± 2.6	0.96
Mean global myocardial flow reserve	1.98 ± 0.56	2.28 ± 0.69	0.047
