CONTEXT Guidelines advise that all adults undergo coronary heart disease (CHD) risk assessment to guide preventive treatment intensity. Although the Framingham Risk Score (FRS) is often recommended for this, it has been suggested that risk assessment may be improved by additional tests such as coronary artery calcium scoring (CACS). OBJECTIVES To determine whether CACS assessment combined wit...
OBJECTIVE The current data regarding the association between calcium and phosphorus and cardiovascular disease are lacking. The aim of this study was to explore whether dietary calcium and phosphorus intake and their serum levels are associated with the prevalence of coronary artery calcification (CAC) using cardiac computed tomography in asymptomatic participants without a history of chronic k...
BACKGROUND In white populations, computed tomographic measurements of coronary-artery calcium predict coronary heart disease independently of traditional coronary risk factors. However, it is not known whether coronary-artery calcium predicts coronary heart disease in other racial or ethnic groups. METHODS We collected data on risk factors and performed scanning for coronary calcium in a popu...
Recently, investigators have begun evaluating the ability of spiral computed tomography (sequence scan mode-SEQ) to measure coronary calcium. Electron Beam Tomography (EBT) and SEQ studies were performed in 10 women and 23 men, with a mean age of 54+/-9 years. The EBT study was performed within 4 weeks (mean 11+/-4 days) of the SEQ with no clinical interval event (MI, revascularization). The me...
Considering the fact that early hypocalcemia is the most common type of neonatal hypocalcemia which manifests during the first few days of Iife (72 hours) and that hypocalcemia in low birth weight neonates is very common, this descriptive study on hypocalcemia was conducted to determine the frequency of hypocalcemia in low birth weight neonates in the city of Kashan in the first 9 months of...
Background. Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is one of the metabolic disorders presented in liver. The relationship between severity of NAFLD and coronary atherosclerotic burden remains largely unknown. Methods and Materials. We analyzed subjects undergoing coronary calcium score evaluation by computed tomography (MDCT) and fatty liver assessment using abdominal ultrasonography. Framing...
As noted by our new president, Warren Manning, our membership is approaching 1000. Magnetic resonance continues to develop technologically. Several great scientists have now received the Nobel Prize for developments in magnetic resonance. Many important contributions have now been made for the cardiovascular applications of CMR. The Journal is proud to share the manuscripts describing the newes...
BACKGROUND Coronary artery calcification which is determined quantitatively by coronary calcium scoring has been known as a sign of coronary stenosis and thus future cardiac events; hence it has been noticed on spotlight of researchers in recent years. Developing different method for early and optimal detection of coronary artery disease (CAD) is really essential as CAD are the first cause of d...
