This association persisted only for left‐sided pEATT after adjustment for age, sex, body mass index, arterial hypertension, LDL cholesterol, coronary heart disease, heart failure and/or left ventricle dysfunction, severe left atrial enlargement, and NTproBNP (adjusted odds ratio per 1 mm increase = 1.27, 95%CI = 1.05–1.53, p = 0.012) (Table 2). The gene discussed is NPPB; the disease is Left atrial enlargement.
