*Adjusted for age, sex, hypertension, dyslipidaemia, diabetes mellitus, chronic kidney disease, bicuspid aortic valve, smoking history, statin, baseline echocardiographic value of the analysed measurement and annual change in indexed stroke volume.
AVA, aortic valve area; AVAi, indexed aortic valve area; MD, mean difference; MG, mean aortic gradient; MI, myocardial infarction; Vpeak, aortic peak jet velocity; VTI, velocity-time integral.
