A low Hb level is not associated with a lower prevalence of SEC when controlled for clinical and echocardiographic variables. Our study confirms the importance of LAAEV and dilated LA in determining presence of SEC, but also raises interesting questions of the relationship between statins and SEC that warrant further study.
