Values are presented as median (interquartile range) for continuous variables and counts (percentage) for categorical variables. For BNP, n = 61 (46 CH+ and 15 CH−). For EF, n = 43 (15 CH+ and 28 CH−). For systolic blood pressure, diastolic blood pressure, CAD diagnosis, hypertension diagnosis, and heart failure diagnosis, n = 181 (99 CH+ and 82 CH−). Bold indicates significance P < 0.05.
