Baseline characteristics of the study population.

	Entire population (n = 20)	Ischemic (n = 10)	ARVD/C (n = 10)	-value
Age (years)	57 ± 15	69 ± 8	45 ± 9	<0.001
Sex (male)	15 (75%)	9 (90%)	6 (60%)	0.303
Hypertension (n)	7 (35%)	6 (60%)	1 (10%)	0.057
Dyslipidemia (n)	8 (40%)	7 (70%)	1 (10%)	0.020
LVEF (%)	44 ± 16	35 ± 20	49 ± 14	0.193
EAM points (n)	532 ± 212	438 ± 208	626 ± 180	0.076

Values are given as mean ± standard deviation or n (%). -value refers to the comparison between ischemic and ARVD/C populations. ARVD/C: arrhythmogenic right ventricular dysplasia/cardiomyopathy; LVEF: left ventricular ejection fraction; and EAM: electroanatomical mapping.
