Figure 1 Kaplan-Meier Analysis of All-Cause Death, Cardiac Transplantation, or Heart Failure Hospitalization

–/+MPO = first tertile (≤271 pM) versus second and third tertile (>271 pM) plasma MPO levels; –/+BNP = below-median versus above-median plasma BNP levels (median = 65 pg/ml). BNP = B-type natriuretic peptide; MPO = myeloperoxidase.

Figure 2 Adverse Event Rate and Corresponding Hazard Ratios for Subgroups

Hazard ratios are calculated relative to the subgroup with the lowest risk (hazard ratio = 1.0). HF = heart failure; LVEF = left ventricular ejection fraction; MPO = myeloperoxidase.
