  1. The table displays the median, and (“under parentesis”) the interquartile range, for the ECG measurements. It considers three groups of patients: those with ECG-age more than 8 years greater than the chronological age (denoted by: “>8 years older”); those with ECG-age within a range of 8 years from their chronological age (denoted by: “±8 years”); and, those with ECG-age more than 8 years smaller than the chronological age (denoted by: “>8 years younger”). Statistical comparison of the medians is made through Kruskal–Wallis two-sided test.
