The original risk score is based on traditional risk factors for heart disease, sex, race andcoronary artery calcium(CAC) levels, which are obtained from computed tomography (CT) imaging. Traditional risk factors in the MESA score include total cholesterol; low "good" cholesterol, or HDL; high ...

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 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...
artery calcium score showed complementary predictive utility, and their simple combination showed similar risk discrimination for coronary heart disease and cardiovascular disease events compared with the 2013 College of Cardiology/American Heart Association atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease risk score. ...

(coronary heart disease, stroke, and fatal CVD) over a maximum of 5.3 years of follow-up. Results There were 222 CVD events during follow-up. Coronary artery calcium was associated more strongly than carotid IMT with the risk of incident CVD. After adjustment for each other (CAC score and...
Prevalence of high-risk plaque features on cardiac computed tomography scans in patients with a coronary artery calcium score of zero INTRODUCTION. Coronary artery calcium (CAC) score of zero (so-called "power of zero") is associated with a very low rate of major adverse cardiac events (M.....
