Renal Function in Relation to Cardiac ¹²³I-MIBG Scintigraphy in Patients with Chronic Heart Failure

Figure 1

(a) Model predicting cardiac death: late H/M enters the model first (Chi-square = 3.2). The addition of renal function did not significantly change the model (Chi-square for the model including e-CC = 4.1 and for the model including e-GFR = 4.0, resp.). (b) Model predicting potentially lethal arrhythmia: QRS duration is the only significant contributor to the model (Chi-square = 8.5). The addition of renal function did not significantly change the model (Chi-square for the model including e-CC = 8.7 and for the model including e-GFR = 9.1, resp.).
