a

Myocardial ischemia was included as a categorical variable (present or absent).

b

Myocardial ischemia was included as a continuous variable (per-segment extent). Bold values are <0.05. ACEI: angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitor; ARB: angiotensin II receptor blocker; CMR: cardiac magnetic resonance; EDV: end diastolic volume; ESV: end systolic volume; EF: ejection fraction; MACE: major adverse cardiovascular events; LGE: late gadolinium enhancement; LV: left ventricular.
