Key result
Among patients with mixed physiology of constriction and restriction, all-cause 5-year mortality was 40% and was unrelated to age, etiology, left ventricular systolic function, or therapeutic course.
Observational (n=38)
Patients with mixed constrictive and restrictive physiology have a poor prognosis with a 40% 5-year mortality rate that is independent of age, etiology, or left ventricular systolic function.

Mixed physiology signals high mortality irrespective of standard factors; leaves open optimal management strategies.
Yamada et al. (2006) conducted an observational in Mixed physiology of constriction and restriction (n=38). Mixed physiology of constriction and restriction was evaluated on All-cause 5-year mortality. Among patients with mixed physiology of constriction and restriction, all-cause 5-year mortality was 40% and was unrelated to age, etiology, left ventricular systolic function, or therapeutic course.
