Morbidity rate of heart failure were compared between the two groups during 12 years follow-up. Heart function was determined by color Doppler ultrasonography. Results:Prevalence of left heart failure and whole heart failure in SDVHD group were 75. 5% and 22. 0% , respectively, significantly higher than the control group ( 16. 2% and 7. 0% , respectively).
