Absolute acceleration time and AT/ET were entered in three separate multivariable models. The best model fit was achieved using absolute acceleration time (Absolute vs. AT/ET: R2: 0.52 vs. 0.51; Akaike Information Criterion: 167 vs. 171). Results of the other model was omitted from this table

LV left ventricular, LVOT left ventricular outflow tract, OR odds ratio

*Either β-blockers, non-dihydropyridine calcium channel antagonists or disopyramide

In univariable analysis diastolic function was assessed using Firth’s penalized-likelihood analysis to account for data separation (restrictive diastolic function was present in nine patients, of which eight were symptomatic), in multivariable analysis diastolic function was entered as a linear term to preserve degrees of freedom
