Prognostic predictors – Left panel. Kaplan-Meier survival curves (considering combined death or HF hospitalization as an endpoint) in medically treated patients stratified according to the presence of stress ΔLVEF ≥ 5% vs rest as cut-off value. Right panel. Kaplan-Meier survival curves (considering combined death or HF hospitalization as an endpoint) in medically treated patients stratified according to the presence of stress ΔESPVR ≥ 0.4 mmHg/mL/m2 vs rest as cut-off value.
