coronary artery diseaseliver cirrhosisliver transplantBackground and aims Coronary artery disease is a major cause of morbidity and mortality in liver transplant patients. Coronary artery calcium (CAC) score has been used to evaluate the risk of CAD in noncirrhotic patients. However, its significance...
An exceptionally high coronary calcium score, greater than 10,000 UA, superior to any other found in the literature reviewed, was reported in an asymptomatic, adult man with hypertension, obesity and dyslipidemia, without myocardial ischemia and no significative coronary stenosis, associated to Glagov...
The presence and burden of coronary artery calcium (CAC) is a strong predictor of cardiovascular events. Current guidelines of the European Society of Cardiology (ESC) for cardio-oncology do not recommend the use of the CAC score to determine the status of risk in cancer patients. The aim of...
For this, we investigated the association between OPG in plasma and circulating EVs with coronary artery calcium (CAC) as surrogate for VC in symptomatic patients. We retrospectively assessed 742 patients undergoing myocardial perfusion imaging (MPI). CAC scores were determined on the MPI-CT images ...

It was examined the relationship between oxidative stress and SCORE2, and to investigate whether one of the oxidative stress parameters may represent a potential risk marker permitting more accurate high-risk prediction for CV risk calculation models. The study groups consisted of 71 coronary artery ...

Coronary artery calcium scans, such as one shown here, are used to detect the amount of calcium lining the heart's arteries and assess the risk of heart attack or stroke. Credit: UT Southwestern Medical Center An X-ray test commonly used to assess hardening of the arteries could help doctor...
