Prognostic Value of Left Ventricular Diastolic Dysfunction in Patients Undergoing Cardiac Catheterization for Coronary Artery Disease

Table 4

Unadjusted and adjusted hazard ratios of left ventricular relaxation time constant (Tau) > 48 ms and peak early diastolic mitral annular velocity (𝑒^′)<5.8 cm/s by Cox proportional hazards regression analysis.

	Unadjusted		Adjusted
		Model 1*	Model 2^†	Model 3^‡
Tau > 48 ms	2.57 (1.13–5.81)^¶	2.45 (1.04–5.82)^¶	3.12 (1.16–8.37)^¶	3.23 (1.31–7.97)^¶
𝑒^′<5.8 cm/s	3.47 (1.57–7.70)^#	2.38 (1.03–5.52)^¶	4.09 (1.75–9.57)^#	3.81 (1.65–8.81)^#

Data are represented as hazard ratio (95% CI).
*Adjusted for age, sex, hypertension, dyslipidemia, diabetes, and coronary revascularization after the index cardiac catheterization.
^†Adjusted for previous history of myocardial infarction, the number of coronary arteries narrowed, ejection fraction, systolic aortic pressure, and heart rate.
^‡Adjusted for use of β-blocker, angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors or angiotensin receptor blockers, calcium blocker, statin, and antiplatelet agents.
