The MESA score is used to predict risk forcoronary heart disease(CHD)—includingheart attack, cardiac arrest, revascularization and CHD death—over the next 10 years. It was originally developed in 2015 from participant data in the Multi-Ethnic Study of Atherosclerosis, a community-based study t...
The MESA CHD Risk Score is the first risk scoring tool to incorporate coronary artery calcium scores. The MESA CHD Risk Score can be used to help guide the intensity of preventive therapies such as diet, exercise, aspirin, blood pressure and cholesterol therapies. ...

The article presents clinical medicine research that assesses coronary artery calcium (CAC) score and the risk for coronary heart disease (CHD) and cardiovascular diseases (CVD) among middle-aged and older women considered to be "low risk" according to the Framingham Risk Score (FRS). Coronary ...

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...
This MESA risk score application requires only the input of the traditional risk factors and the CAC score and is the preferred way for interested parties to use the risk score. Results Participants in MESA were followed for a median of 10.2 years (IQR: 9.7 to 10.7 years), and 422 CHD ...
(CHD) risk prediction. However, to date, no risk score incorporating CAC has been developed. Objectives The goal of this study was to derive and validate a novel risk score to estimate 10-year CHD risk using CAC and traditional risk factors. Methods Algorithm development was conducted in the...
