Figure 6 Unadjusted cumulative probability of suffering aortic stenosis (AS) events (valve replacement or cardiac death). Plots are shown for peak jet velocity (Vmax) (A),  P (B), stroke-work loss (SWL) (C), aortic valve area (AVA) (D), and aortic valve resistance (AVR) (E), for patients in Group B after exclusion of patients with critical AS (n = 70). There is a remarkable overlap of the outcome of the group with AVA < 0.75 cm2 and the group in the 0.75 to 1 cm2 range. Again, best discriminative power was observed for SWL.
