What was measured

The amount of blood (in ml) in the heart's left ventricle just after the heart contracts. The mean is reported by arm at each timepoint with corresponding standard errors.

Analysis population: We excluded 31 participants who did not have a second time point assessment of echocardiography, resulting in 151 analyzable participants.

Groups in this outcome

Arm I (Carvedilol)

Patients received Carvedilol PO delivered at 6.25 mg twice daily (for a total dose of 12.5 mg per day) for 24 months.

Arm II (Placebo)

Patients received Placebo PO delivered at 6.25 mg twice daily (for a total dose of 12.5 mg per day) for 24 months.

Group identifiers and denominators belong to this outcome only. They may differ in another outcome or in safety reporting.

    The treatment was considered efficacious if the group by time interaction for LVESV was statistically significant at a two-sided p\<0.05 and the expected LVESV was lower for carvedilol than placebo over time.
