Table 3 summarizes prevalence of any ECG abnormality that was reported in the studies. T wave changes were the most frequently observed ECG abnormality (22%), whereas pathological Q waves were present in 1%.
Relation of determinants with outcome
Figure 2A shows the pooled RRs and corresponding 95% CI of the defined cardiac abnormalities for death.
