The lower mortality rate of the surgery group was due to patients with moderate to severely compromised LVEF (P = 0.005 vs medical therapy group). In contrast, mortality of patients with normal or mildly reduced LVEF did not differ between the 2 groups (P = 0.281 and P = 0.135, respectively). Death of patients with moderate to severe LV systolic dysfunction in the medical therapy group occurred after 82 days (interquartile range, 56\u201399), a period longer than that necessary to restore euthyroidism in the surgery group (26 days; interquartile range, 15\u201395; P = 0.038). Risk factors for mortality were age (hazard ratio [HR] = 1.036) and LVEF (HR = 0.964), whereas total thyroidectomy was shown to be a protective factor (HR = 0.210). LVEF increased in both groups after restoration of euthyroidism, above all in the most compromised patients in the surgery group.<\/jats:p>\n               <\/jats:sec>\n               <jats:sec>\n
