  • Univariable and multivariable Cox hazards regression analyses for the primary endpoint all-cause mortality. The predictive value of variables is expressed as HR with 95% CI and p values.

  • fQRS, fragmented QRS complexes; ICD, implantable cardioverter defibrillator; JTc, corrected JT interval; PVC, premature ventricular complex; RBBB, right bundle branch block; TOF, tetralogy of Fallot.
