Impact of Age and Sex on Left Ventricular Function Determined by Coronary Compu...
Gebhard, C; Buechel, RR; Stähli, BE; Gransar, H; Achenbach, S; Berman, DS; Budoff, MJ; Callister, TQ; Chow, B; Dunning, A; Al-Mallah, MH; Cademartiri, FBACKGROUND: Left ventricular (LV) volumetric and functional parameters measured with cardiac computed tomography (cardiac CT) augment risk prediction and discrimination for future mortality. Gender- and age-specific standard values for LV dimensions and systolic function obtained by 64-slice cardiac CT are lacking. METHODS AND RESULTS: 1155 patients from the Coronary CT Angiography EvaluatioN For Clinical Outco...
Predictive Value of Age- and Sex-Specific Nomograms of Global Plaque Burden on ...
Naoum, C; Berman, D; Ahmadi, A; Blanke, P; Gransar, H; Narula, J; Shaw, LJ; Kritharides, L; Achenbach, S; Al-Mallah, M; Andreini, D; Budoff, MJBackground: Age-adjusted coronary artery disease (CAD) burden identified on coronary computed tomography angiography predicts major adverse cardiovascular event (MACE) risk; however, it seldom contributes to clinical decision making because of a lack of nomographic data. We aimed to develop clinically pragmatic age- and sex-specific nomograms of CAD burden using coronary computed tomography angiography and to v...
