Graphical Abstract.

Association of CMR metrics with incident cardiovascular disease considered separately (blue) and in models mutually adjusted for all the CMR metrics (green). The points indicate point estimate for the hazard ratio and the intervals indicate the corresponding 95% confidence intervals from Cox hazard proportional models. Confounders are age, sex, ethnicity, deprivation, education, body mass index, hypertension, high cholesterol, diabetes, physical activity, and smoking. The blue results are from models with individual adjustment for CMR metrics (Supplementary data online, Table S9). The green results are from models mutually adjusting for all the CMR metrics (Table 3). AF, atrial fibrillation; CMR, cardiovascular magnetic resonance; CVD, cardiovascular disease; LVGFI, left ventricular global function index; GLS, global longitudinal strain; i, indicates indexation to body surface area; IHD, ischaemic heart disease; LAEF, left atrial ejection fraction; LAV, maximum left atrial volume; LVEDV, left ventricular end-diastolic volume; LVM, left ventricular mass; MI, myocardial infarction.
