BACKGROUND Several biological pathways are activated in ventricular remodeling and in overt heart failure (HF). There are no data, however, on the incremental utility of a parsimonious set of biomarkers (reflecting pathways implicated in HF) for predicting HF risk in the community. METHODS AND RESULTS We related a multibiomarker panel to the incidence of a first HF event in 2754 Framingham He...
BACKGROUND A significant proportion of individuals with diabetes or impaired glucose tolerance have fasting plasma glucose less than 6.1 mmol/L and so are not identified with fasting plasma glucose measurements. In this study, we sought to evaluate the utility of plasma lipids to improve on fasting plasma glucose and other standard risk factors for the identification of type 2 diabetes or those...
The authors studied the incremental value of adding serum cystatin C or creatinine to the Framingham risk score variables (FRSVs) for the prediction of incident cardiovascular disease (CVD) among 6,653 adults without clinical CVD utilizing the Multi-Ethnic Study of Atherosclerosis (2000-2008). CVD events included coronary heart disease, heart failure, stroke, and peripheral arterial disease. Va...
BACKGROUND Fractional flow reserve derived from computed tomography angiography (FFRCT) is a noninvasive method for diagnosis of ischemic coronary lesions. To date, the diagnostic performance of FFRCT for lesions of intermediate stenosis severity remains unexamined. METHODS AND RESULTS Among 407 vessels from 252 patients at 17 centers who underwent CT, FFRCT, invasive coronary angiography, an...
BACKGROUND Cardiovascular disease risk increases when lipoprotein metabolism is dysfunctional. We have developed a computational model able to derive indicators of lipoprotein production, lipolysis, and uptake processes from a single lipoprotein profile measurement. This is the first study to investigate whether lipoprotein metabolism indicators can improve cardiovascular risk prediction and th...
BACKGROUND Cardiac myosin-binding protein C (cMyC) is a cardiac-restricted protein that is more abundant than cardiac troponins (cTn) and is released more rapidly after acute myocardial infarction (AMI). We evaluated cMyC as an adjunct or alternative to cTn in the early diagnosis of AMI. METHODS Unselected patients (N=1954) presenting to the emergency department with symptoms suggestive of AM...
BACKGROUND Impaired vasodilator function is an early manifestation of coronary artery disease and may precede angiographic stenosis. It is unknown whether noninvasive assessment of coronary vasodilator function in patients with suspected or known coronary artery disease carries incremental prognostic significance. METHODS AND RESULTS A total of 2783 consecutive patients referred for rest/stre...
BACKGROUND Vitamin D deficiency is associated with an increased risk of cardiovascular disease; however, it is unclear whether vitamin D status should be considered in clinical risk assessments of patients with cardiovascular disease. METHODS AND RESULTS This study included 2975 patients who had their first serum total 25-hydroxy vitamin D (25-OH vitamin D) measurement before their first coro...
BACKGROUND Previous studies report that CHADS2 and CHA2DS2-VASc risk scores have similar discriminating ability (C statistic ∼0.6). Recently a clinically based risk score, the ATRIA (Anticoagulation and Risk Factors in Atrial Fibrillation) study risk score, was developed and validated. OBJECTIVES This study compared predictive ability of CHA2DS2-VASc and CHADS2 ischemic stroke risk scores wit...
Concerns have been raised about the use of traditional measures of model fit in evaluating risk prediction models for clinical use, and reclassification tables have been suggested as an alternative means of assessing the clinical utility of a model. Several measures based on the table have been proposed, including the reclassification calibration (RC) statistic, the net reclassification improve...
