Kaplan–Meier survival analysis of LVEF, LV‐GLS, LV‐GCS and RV‐GLS.

A, Patients with a LVEF <50% have a worse event‐free survival compared to patients with a LVEF ≥50%; B, Patients with LV GLS worse than −18% have a worse event‐free survival compared to patients with better strain values, based on quartiles; C, Patients with LV GCS worse than 22% have a worse event‐free survival compared to patients with better strain values, based on quartiles; and D, RV GLS is not associated with event‐free survival. EF indicates ejection fraction; GCS, global circumferential strain; GLS, global longitudinal strain; LV, left ventricular; and RV, right ventricular.
