Table 3 Determinants of discrepantly higher or lower pulmonary arterial systolic pressure compared to E/e′

From: Effects of left atrial function on pulmonary arterial pressure in acute myocardial infarction, hypertrophic and dilated cardiomyopathy

 

Variables

Higher PASP compared to E/e′ (Group 1, n = 50)

On the regression line between PASP and E/e′ (Group 2, n = 28)

Lower PASP compared to E/e′ (Group 3, n = 55)
