  1. Continuous data are the mean ± SD or median and range (for NT-proBNP). Categorical variables are presented as absolute and/or relative frequencies.
  2. *For categorical data, P values were derived by Pearson’s χ2; for continuous data, P values were calculated using one-way ANOVA followed by the Student-Newman-Keuls test for multiple post-hoc comparisons except in relation to NT-proBNP, for which the Kruskal-Wallis test was used. NYHA, New York Heart Association; ACEI, angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitor; ARB, angiotensin-II receptor blocker; β-RB, β-receptor blocker. Other abbreviations and acronyms are the same as shown in Table 1.
