FIGURE 1. PFV and the Risk of HF Adjusted for Anthropometric Indicators of Obesity.

FIGURE 1

Elevated pericardial fat volume (PFV) was associated with a greater risk of heart failure (HF) after adjustment for anthropometric indicators of obesity in multivariable models. *High PFV was defined as ≥70 cm3 in women and ≥120 cm3 in men. †Hazard ratios are shown on a logarithmic scale. Vertical bars denote 95% confidence intervals. ‡r denotes correlation coefficient. §Introduced as a continuous variable in statistical models. ||Race, cigarette smoking, alcohol consumption, and vigorous physical activity at baseline. #Hypertension, diabetes mellitus, and dyslipidemia at baseline and interim myocardial infarction during follow-up.
