Mortality by diabetic state and presence of LVH. Compared all-cause mortality (A) and cardiovascular mortality (B) regarding diabetic state in individuals with and without left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH). Mortality in individuals with prediabetes and LVH was as high as in diabetes without LVH. A total of 808 deaths were registered within a median observational follow-up time of 9.04 years (IQR 7.7–10.0 years). In 12,958 individuals without LVH, 596 deaths including 117 fatal cardiovascular events were recorded, and of 1791 individuals with LVH 205 deaths were notified (60 events of cardiovascular reasons).
