Figure 1 Kaplan-Meier Event-Free Curves of the 3 Subgroups Based on the SSS

The severe summed stress score (SSS) subgroup (SSS ≥14) and the moderate SSS subgroup (SSS 9–13) had significantly lower event-free rates than did the normal to low SSS subgroup (SSS 0–8). *#Versus normal-low, p < 0.0001.

Figure 2 Kaplan-Meier Event-Free Curves Based on End-Systolic Volume Index

Kaplan-Meier event-free curves of the 3 subgroups based on end-systolic volume index (ESVI) (ml/m2). The higher ESVI subgroup had a significantly lower event-free rate than did the moderate or lower ESVI subgroup. *Versus normal-low, p < 0.0001; #versus moderate, p = 0.0001.

Figure 3 Event Rates of Refractory HF in Each SSS Category

Event rates of new-onset refractory heart failure (HF) in each SSS category tend to increase with the end-systolic volume index (ESVI); based on the ESVI tertile, patients were classified as either lower (≤13 ml/m2, yellow columns), moderate (14 to 22 ml/m2, pink columns), or greater (≥23 ml/m2, green columns). The minimal risk (0.3%/3 years) at a normal to low SSS and lower ESVI increases to the approximately 17 times greater risk (5.0% to 5.2%/3 years) at a moderate to high SSS with a moderate to higher ESVI.

Figure 4 Global Chi-Square Values for Predicting New-Onset Refractory HF

Global chi-square values for predicting new-onset refractory heart failure (HF) significantly and incrementally increase when chronic renal dysfunction (CRD), end-systolic volume index (ESVI), and summed stress score (SSS), all of which were determined by multivariable Cox analysis, are combined.
