Abstract
The sedentary lifestyle, reduced LVEF and impaired VE/VCO2 slope showed to be independent predictors of IMW, probably by the association between these variables and the presence of inflammation in CHD patients. The detection of IMW may be helpful in identifying patients at high risk based on echocardiographic and functional aspects without much operating costs.
