Table 3. – Association between galectin-3 and death or heart transplantation in the CC-Dys subgroup using ROC and Cox regression models, both crude and adjusted for age, sex, serum creatinine level, NYHA functional class >I and LVEF, and using Galectin-3 and NT-proBNP as categorical variables.

				Crude Model		Adjusted Model
	AUC	Cutoff	Cutoff Level	p	HR (95%CI)	p	HR (95%CI)
Galectin-3 (ng/mL)	0.71	15.3	Low
			High	0.007	3.27 (1.39-7.71)	0.04	2.63 (1.00-6.90)
NT-proBNP (pg/mL)	0.80	1278	Low
			High	<0.001	5.69 (2.41-13.42)	0.02	3.44 (1.21-9.78)

AUC: area under the curve; CI: confidence interval; HR: hazard ratio; LVEF: left ventricular ejection fraction; NT-proBNP: N-terminal pro B-type natriuretic peptide; NYHA: New York Heart Association; ROC: receiver operating characteristic
