Evolving knowledge regarding sex differences in coronary heart disease is emerging. Given the lower burden of obstructive coronary artery disease (CAD) and preserved systolic function in women, which contrasts with greater rates of myocardial ischemia and near-term mortality compared with men, we propose the term “ischemic heart disease” as appropriate for this discussion specific to women rath...
BACKGROUND The impact of diabetes mellitus on the clinical presentation and noninvasive test (NIT) results among stable outpatients presenting with symptoms suggestive of coronary artery disease (CAD) has not been well described. METHODS AND RESULTS The PROMISE (Prospective Multicenter Imaging Study for Evaluation of Chest Pain) trial enrolled 10 003 patients with known diabetic status, of wh...
OBJECTIVES The goal of this study was to determine the long-term prognostic value of coronary computed tomography angiography (CTA) among patients with diabetes mellitus (DM) compared with nondiabetic subjects. BACKGROUND The long-term prognostic value of coronary CTA in patients with DM is not well established. METHODS Patients enrolled in the CONFIRM (Coronary CT Angiography Evaluation fo...
W omen with obstructive coronary artery disease (CAD) have poor outcomes relative to otherwise comparable men. More women than men die after a first myocardial infarction. Younger women (<55 years) have a particularly unfavorable prognosis after myocardial infarction relative to male counterparts. Mechanisms for these differential outcomes are unclear, but since younger women have worse preeven...
BACKGROUND The aim of this study was to determine the relationship between the morphological and physiological information of coronary CT angiography (CCTA) and stress myocardial perfusion imaging (S-MPI) from the standpoint of risk stratification of patients with intermediate to high probability of coronary artery disease (CAD). METHODS AND RESULTS In total, 51 patients underwent both CCTA a...
We studied the relationship of coronary artery calcification (CAC), a marker of coronary atherosclerosis, with prevalent clinical coronary artery disease (CAD) and established cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk factors in a type 1 diabetic population. At the 10-year follow-up examination of the Pittsburgh Epidemiology of Diabetes Complications (EDC) Study cohort, 302 adults (mean age 38.1 +/- 7....
The determination of the underlying etiology of symptoms suggestive of obstructive coronary artery disease (CAD, ?50% stenosis in a major coronary artery) is a common clinical challenge in both primary care and cardiology clinics. Usual care in low to medium risk patients often involves a family history, risk factor assessment, and then stress testing with or without noninvasive imaging. If pos...
Brachial-artery pulse wave velocity (baPWV) is a simple and reliable tool for measurement of arterial stiffness. Our previous studies suggested that baPWV is associated with the presence and severity of coronary artery disease (CAD) and the risk of cardiovascular events. In the present data article, we provided supplementary data supporting the independent prognostic value of arterial stiffness...
BACKGROUND Several studies have demonstrated a high accuracy of coronary computed tomography angiography (CCTA) for detection of obstructive coronary artery disease (CAD), whereas some studies have also shown a good prediction of cardiac events. However, it remains to be proven whether CCTA is better predictive of events than conventional risk scores or calcium scoring. Therefore, we compared C...
Objective: To explore the relationship between cardiovascular risk factors and coronary artery disease (CAD) severity in young Puerto Rican adults who have suffered a myocardial infarction. Methods: A cross-sectional study examined adults aged 21 to 35 years who underwent left cardiac catheterization in the Cardiovascular Center for Puerto Rico and the Caribbean during 2008-2012 due to myocardi...
