Figure 3 Kaplan-Meier survival curves according to the clinical profiles in patients with New York Heart Association functional class III/IV heart failure. The end point shown is one-year mortality + urgent transplantation. Patients with profiles B and C had worse outcomes than profile A. Profile L had too few patients for meaningful statistical analysis. The survival for profiles B and C did not differ significantly after Bonferroni correction. *p = 0.015 for profile A versus profile B, p = 0.04 for profile B versus profile C, p < 0.001 for profile A versus profile C.
