  1. Significant differences are in bold
  2. Complication-stroke: symptomatic cerebrovascular event, which leads to registration in the local complication database. Complication-renal failure: a decline in kidney function, which was significant enough to be registered in the local complication database. Variables with a Gaussian distribution are shown as mean  ±  standard deviation and variables with a non-Gaussian distribution are shown with median and 25–75 percentiles
  3. BMI, Body Mass Index; DM, diabetes mellitus; CVE, cerebrovascular event in the medical history; COPD, Chronic Obstructive Lung Disease; LVEF, Left ventricular ejection fraction; PM, pacemaker
