| Healthy controls | HCM patients | |
|---|---|---|
| Female | 6 (43%) | 6 (43%) |
| Age [years] | 53 ± 16 | 55 ± 18 |
| EDVi[ml/m2] | 73 ± 12 | 69 ± 12 |
| ESVi[ml/m2] | 26 ± 7 | 19 ± 7* |

n = 14. Values expressed as mean ± standard deviation.
*
Statistically significant difference (p < 0.05) between healthy controls and patients. EDVi, indexed end-diastolic volume; ESVi, indexed end-systolic volume; SVi, indexed stroke volume; EF, ejection fraction; MMi, indexed muscle-mass.
