  • Table shows unadjusted univariable and adjusted multivariable analyses of the effect of TTNtv and alcohol excess on baseline left ventricular ejection fraction.

  • *Adjusted for gender, a family history of DCM, a history of atrial fibrillation and the presence of mid wall fibrosis (late gadolinium enhancement on CMR) and NYHA class.

  • § i.e. the effect of TTNtv and alcohol excess compared to either TTNtv alone or alcohol excess alone.
