Prognostic value of coronary computed tomography (CT) angiography
Coronary computed tomography angiography (CTA) allows increasingly reliable visualization of the coronary arteries. Over the past two years, several relevant scientific studies on the clinical utility and prognostic value of CT angiography have been published, and this review will provide a summary of the currently available data.
متن کاملPrognostic Value of Coronary Computed Tomography Angiography in Patients With Diabetes: A Meta-analysis.
OBJECTIVE The usefulness of coronary computed tomography angiography (CTA) for the evaluation of coronary artery disease (CAD) in patients with diabetes is ambiguous. We therefore performed a meta-analysis of studies reporting event rates and hazard ratios (HR) to determine the prognostic value of CTA in this patient population. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS We searched PubMed and Embase up to ...
متن کاملThe prognostic value of normal exercise myocardial perfusion imaging and exercise echocardiography: a meta-analysis.
OBJECTIVES The purpose of this work was to determine the prognostic value of normal exercise myocardial perfusion imaging (MPI) tests and exercise echocardiography tests, and to determine the prognostic value of these imaging modalities in women and men. BACKGROUND Exercise MPI and exercise echocardiography provide prognostic information that is useful in the risk stratification of patients w...
متن کاملPrognostic value of late gadolinium enhancement cardiac magnetic resonance in hypertrophic cardiomyopathy: a meta-analysis
Background Contrast-enhanced cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR) with late gadolinium enhancement (LGE) has emerged as an in vivo marker of myocardial fibrosis, although its significance in identifying high risk hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) patients remains unresolved. Previous meta-analyses have included studies with data involving overlapping patient populations, thus confounding eff...
متن کاملPrognostic Value of PLR in Various Cancers: A Meta-Analysis
BACKGROUND Recently, more and more studies investigated the association of inflammation parameters such as the Platelet Lymphocyte Ratio (PLR) and the prognosis of various cancers. However, the prognostic role of PLR in cancer remains controversial. METHODS We conducted a meta-analysis of published studies to evaluate the prognostic value of PLR in various cancers. In order to investigate the...
