2 Figure 1 Survival curves of sudden deaths and major arrhythmic events (sustained VT, VF) in patients with ACM and IDCM. The solid line indicates patients with ACM and alcohol abstinence, the small dashed line indicates IDCM, and the large dashed line indicates patients with ACM without abstinence. Compared to patients with ACM and alcohol abstinence, relative risk of events was 8.0 for patients with ACM without abstinence (log-rank test, p = 0.01) and 7.3 for patients with IDCM (log-rank test, p = 0.03).
