  1. Results from stepwise multiple linear regression model for prediction of KE inside diastolic vortex by independent variables in patients. LVM was the strongest predictor of KE inside diastolic vortex, and peak filling rate (PFR) contributed to the model. KE inside diastolic vortex was not dependent on heart rate (HR) or stroke volume
