NPPB and familial dilated cardiomyopathy: We conducted a multivariable model for MACEs, based on the univariable analysis reported in Table 2, which revealed the presence of moderate or severe MR (HR [95%CI], 1.53 [1.12–2.08]; p = 0.01) and increasing Ln(NT-proBNP) (1.28 [1.193–1.44]; p < 0.001) as independent predictors of MACEs for DCM patients at baseline.
