Evolving knowledge regarding sex differences in coronary heart disease is emerging. Given the lower burden of obstructive coronary artery disease (CAD) and preserved systolic function in women, which contrasts with greater rates of myocardial ischemia and near-term mortality compared with men, we propose the term "ischemic heart disease" as appropriate for this discussion specific to women rath...
AIMS Women with chest pain but without obstructive coronary artery disease (CAD) are considered at low risk for cardiovascular (CV) events, but half continue to experience debilitating chest pain over many years. This study compared CV outcomes in women with persistent chest pain (PChP) vs. those without PChP. METHODS AND RESULTS We studied 673 Women's Ischaemia Syndrome Evaluation (WISE) par...
OBJECTIVES The purpose of this study was to examine sex-specific associations, if any, between per-vessel coronary artery disease (CAD) extent and the risk of major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE) over a 5-year study duration. BACKGROUND The presence and extent of CAD diagnosed by coronary computed tomography angiography (CTA) is associated with increased short-term mortality and MACE. N...
AIMS To evaluate probabilities of disability pension (DP) and premature exit from the workforce (PEW) in patients with stable angina symptoms and no obstructive coronary artery disease (CAD) at angiography compared with obstructive CAD and asymptomatic reference individuals. METHODS AND RESULTS We followed 4303 patients with no prior cardiovascular disease having a first-time coronary angiogr...
OBJECTIVES We investigated the utility of digital reactive hyperemia peripheral arterial tonometry (RH-PAT) in predicting ischemic heart disease (IHD), including obstructive coronary artery disease (CAD) and nonobstructive coronary artery disease (NOCAD), in women. BACKGROUND IHD is the leading cause of mortality, and its pathogenesis is diverse in women. Fingertip RH-PAT is a new device that...
BACKGROUND We determined whether high-sensitivity cardiac troponin I can improve the estimation of the pretest probability for obstructive coronary artery disease (CAD) in patients with suspected stable angina. METHODS AND RESULTS In a prespecified substudy of the SCOT-HEART trial (Scottish Computed Tomography of the Heart), plasma cardiac troponin was measured using a high-sensitivity single...
BACKGROUND Guidelines recommend that in suspected stable coronary artery disease (CAD), a clinical (non-invasive) evaluation should be performed before coronary angiography. OBJECTIVE We assessed the efficacy of patient selection for coronary angiography in suspected stable CAD. METHODS We prospectively selected consecutive patients without known CAD, referred to a high-volume tertiary cent...
Abstract Background Monocytes, among other leucocytes, are crucially involved in the pathogenesis of atherosclerosis, but value peripheral blood leucocyte counts predicting presence or absence atherosclerotic coronary artery disease (CAD) is unknown. Purpose Investigating whether circulating monocytes, lymphocytes and neutrophils predict CAD on computed tomography angiography (CTCA) patients pr...
BACKGROUND Advanced liver failure (ALF) usually presents hypocholesterolemia. Nevertheless, some patients with ALF develops major coronary obstructive diseases with consequent increased risk or contraindication to liver transplantation. OBJECTIVE To analyze the contribution of classical risk factors for coronary artery disease (CAD) in patients with ALF with and without obstructive coronary d...
Background—Coronary Computed Tomography Angiography (CCTA) is an accurate test for the identification of coronary artery disease (CAD), yet the impact of the CCTA results upon subsequent medical therapy and risk factors has not been widely reported. Methods and Results—We identified consecutive patients >18 years of age without prior CAD who underwent CCTA from 2004 – 2011 and had complete data...
