Fig. 3: Cardiomyopathic characteristics of the study population.
From: Intrinsic cardiomyopathy in pediatric Marfan syndrome: predictive factors and risk assessments

In total, 39.8% of patients (n = 33) had cardiomyopathic characteristics (green). Most of these patients (31.7% of included patients) had a cardiac index below the normal range for the patient’s age (n = 26; pink). An ejection fraction below 50% was found in 6.0% of patients (n = 5; yellow). Diastolic dysfunction was present in 11.3% (n = 8; blue) of patients. LLN lower limit of normal.
