LVEF: left ventricular ejection fraction; NYHA: New York Heart Association.
P values were calculated from two-sided Fisher’s exact tests to analyze the genotype distribution or allele frequency for the HRH3 rs3787429 polymorphism according to NYHA class.
P values were calculated from two-sided chi-square tests or Fisher’s exact tests versus the control population.
P values were calculated by analysis of variance (ANOVA).
