Cardiovascular screening of women using traditional risk factors has been challenging, with results often classifying a majority as lower than men. The aim this report was to determine the long-term prognosis asymptomatic and men classified at low-intermediate undergoing coronary artery calcium (CAC) scoring.A total 2363 aggregating into Framingham score (6%-9.9%; 10-year predicted risk) underwent CAC scanning. Individuals were followed up for median 14.6 years. We estimated all-cause...
Data regarding coronary artery calcification (CAC) prognosis in diabetic individuals are limited to 5-years follow-up. We investigated the long-term risk stratification of CAC among compared with nondiabetic individuals.Nine thousand seven hundred and fifteen asymptomatic undergoing scoring were followed for a median (interquartile range) 14.7 (13.9-15.6) years. The incidence density rate hazard ratios 95% confidence intervals used calculate all-cause mortality. Incremental prognostic...
AimsThe purpose of this study was to examine the prognostic significance uptake patterns on quantitative myocardial 123I-mIBG and 99mTc-tetrofosmin SPECT imaging in heart failure (HF) subjects assess differences between patients with ischaemic non-ischaemic HF.
Minimal data are available regarding the long-term mortality risk of subclinical atherosclerosis using coronary artery calcium (CAC) scoring among patients with a family history (FH) disease (CAD). The aim present analysis was to assess prognostic utility CAC cohorts young and older without FH CAD.A total 9715 consecutive asymptomatic patients, free known CAD, underwent for cardiovascular assessment. primary end point all-cause mortality, median follow-up 14.6 years. Unadjusted risk-factor...
Background: Right ventricular failure (RVF) occurs in 20%-40% of left assist device (LVAD) recipients. Preoperative clinical scores inadequately predict RVF risk these patients. Methods: Beginning 6/2012, all adults with INTERMACS ≥2 profile scheduled for LVAD implantation, without planned right (RV) support, were prospectively enrolled an ongoing study evaluating standard and speckle-tracking echocardiographic parameters RV function prediction. echocardiograms performed 5±5 days prior to...
