Left ventricular dimensions and function (left ventricular end diastolic diameter, LVEDD; left ventricular end systolic diameter, LVESD; left ventricular ejection fraction, LVEF). *We only used data of patients with LVEDD/ LVESD-values if they had also stated LVEDD/LVESD- baseline values to describe the course.
