Graphical AbstractRisk of AVB and need for cardiac pacing. Left: Percentage of patients diagnosed with aAVB/sCD in both sexes. Right-top: Multivariate logistic regression analyses for risk of aAVB/sCD. Odds ratio and 95% CI are plotted. Right-bottom: Kaplan-Meier pacemaker-free survival estimates curves in both sexes. aAVB/sCD, advanced atrio-ventricular block or severe conduction disturbances; HR, hazard ratio; CI, confidence interval; y.o, years old; IHD, ischemic heart disease; LVEF, left ventricular ejection fraction; BBB, bundle branch block; LBBB, left bundle branch block; RBBB, right bundle branch block; LAFB, left anterior fascicular block
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
