Beschreibungen/Notizen

• Multivariable analysis revealed that female gender was independently associated with an increased risk of the primary end-point (Adjusted OR=1.9, 95% CI [1.12, 3.17], p=0.02), even after controlling for clinical variables (age, resting LV outflow tract gradient >30 mm Hg, LV ejection fraction) and SCD risk factors (LV mass, LGE, maximal LV wall thickness, unexplained syncope, family history of SCD due to HCM, and ambulatory non-sustained ventricular tachycardia).
