In the present analysis we aimed to: 1) quantify the expected difference in indication for statin therapy when applying AHA/ACC versus ESC guidelines among a European general population cohort without known coronary heart disease and without statin therapy at baseline; 2) determine the event rate ...
Commenting to theheart.org | Medscape Cardiology, Roger Blumenthal, MD, director of the Johns Hopkins Ciccarone Center for the Prevention of Cardiovascular Disease, said the class IIb recommendation "never really made any sense because the data with coronary calcium is so much stronger than it ...
Objective:We investigated the predictive value of clinical factors combined with coronary artery calcium (CAC) score based on a machine learning method for obstructive coronary heart disease (CAD) on coronary computed tomography angiography (CCTA) in individuals with atypical chest pain. Methods:The ...

Fig. 3.1 Obvious distension of the jugular vein in a cow having heart failure secondary to endocarditis. Taking the arterial pulse may be helpful in the assessment of cardiac disease. The middle coccygeal artery is the first artery palpated for pulsation during the physical examination. The ...
Here at theAmerican Heart Association 2011 Scientific Sessions, Arguelles toldheartwirethat "individuals who come in with a very high risk-factor profile and are the most likely to be placed on medications already have a very high underlying level of pathology that could be driving that calcificati...
