Additionally, the difference in estimated 10-year risk between events and nonevents was approximately 8% to 9%, indicating excellent discrimination. Mean calibration, or calibration-in-the-large, was excellent for both studies, with average predicted 10-year risk within one-half of a percent of ...
Risk FactorsCoronary heart diseaseMyocardial infarctionBackground:The Multi-Ethnic Study of Atherosclerosis (MESA) Risk Score is used to predict 10-year coronary heart disease (CHD) risk based on traditional risk factors and coronary artery calcium (CAC). Discussions around the potential for equity ...

The use of computed tomography (CT) imaging to detect coronary artery calcium (CAC) has been proposed as a tool to allow improved detection of at-risk individuals (2). However, not all coronary events are caused by calcified plaque (3, 4), and although the relationship between CAC and cor...

The coronary artery calcium score (CACS) has been shown to predict future coronary heart disease (CHD) events. However, the extent to which adding CACS to traditional CHD risk factors improves classification of risk is unclear. To determine whether adding CACS to a prediction model based on trad...
