↵2-150 Wilcoxon’s.
LVDD, left ventricular (LV) diastolic diameter; SF, fractional shortening; PWD, diastolic posterior wall thickness; HR, heart rate; IVRT, isovolumic relaxation time; E, peak early filling velocity; A, peak atrial phase filling velocity; E/A ratio, E/A; EAccT and EDecT, time to and from peak E velocity, respectively.
