High left-to-right ventricular volume ratio significantly predicted heart failure, atrial fibrillation, and death, pointing to volume imbalances as critical indicators.
Participants with high left-to-right atrial volume ratios also showed increased risks for heart failure and atrial fibrillation after adjustments for risk factors.
This analysis utilized Cox regression models to evaluate the impact of chamber volume ratios on cardiac events in a multi-ethnic cohort free of cardiovascular disease.
Findings imply that monitoring chamber volume ratios can enhance risk stratification and intervention strategies in populations at risk of cardiac events.
