  1. Categorical variables presented as number(frequency), continuous variables as median (interquartile range).
  2. Categorical variables are compared using Pearson’s χ2 test and continuous variables were compared Kruskal–Wallis test, with all tests being two-sided. No adjustment was made for multiple comparisons. COPD chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, LA left atrial, LV left ventricle, RA right atrial, RV right ventricle.
