| Factor | The C-index |
| Description | The C-index of the model including RDW was slightly, but significantly (P = 0.005) higher than the model without (0.74, 95% CI 0.70–0.78 versus 0.73, 95% CI 0.69–0.78). |

| Conclusion | RDW is associated with cardiovascular events in patients with ACHD, independently of age, sex, clinical risk factors, CRP, and NT-proBNP. This readily available biomarker could therefore be considered as an additive biomarker for risk stratification in these patients. |
