Relationship between LVEF and the extent of LGE. a LVEF and % LGE with a threshold of 2SD, b LVEF and % LGE with a threshold of 6SD. % LGE with a threshold of 6SD was inversely related to LVEF (r = −0.44; p = 0.002), but that with a threshold of 2SD was not (r = −0.28, p = 0.060). Abbreviations as in Table 1

Fig. 5

Relationship between LVEF, the extent of LGE, and number of recurrent unplanned heart failure hospitalizations. a LVEF and number of recurrent unplanned HF hospitalizations, b % LGE with a threshold of 6SD and number of recurrent unplanned HF hospitalizations. The number of recurrent hospitalizations per patient was related not to LVEF (r = −0.06, p = 0.798) but to % LGE with a threshold of 6SD (r = 0.44; p = 0.037). Abbreviations as in Table 1
