BackgroundCoronary computed tomography angiography is increasingly used as the first‐line test for suspected coronaryarterydisease. PTP was calculated according to the 2013 and 2019 ESC guidelines. Journal of the American Heart Association, Volume 12, Issue 23 , December 5, 2023.
Atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD), caused by plaque buildup in arterial walls, is one of the leading causes of disability and death worldwide.1,2 1,2 ASCVD causes or contributes to conditions that include coronaryarterydisease (CAD), cerebrovascular disease, and peripheral vascular disease (inclusive of aortic aneurysm).3
By age 66, more than half of all females will have evidence of advanced plaque in their coronaryarteries, as seen on a CT calcium score. Subscribe now But are there groups who buck this trend and rarely develop coronaryarterydisease and, by extension, do not die from it early in life? 2013 Jun;15(3):134-6.
Background Insights on the differences in clinical outcomes, quality of life (QoL) and health resource utilisation (HRU) with different levels of care available to post-acute myocardial infarction (AMI) populations in rural and urban settings are limited.
This study aimed to assess the impact of high lipoprotein(a) on the long‐term prognosis of patients undergoing coronaryartery bypass grafting.Methods and ResultsConsecutive patients with stable coronaryarterydisease who underwent isolated coronaryartery bypass grafting from January 2013 to December 2018 from a single‐center cohort were included.
Angiogram No obstructive epicardial coronaryarterydisease Cannot exclude non-ACS causes of troponin elevation including coronary vasospasm, stress cardiomyopathy, microvascular disease, etc. Myocardial Infarction With Nonobstructive CoronaryArteries (MINOCA): The Past, Present, and Future Management [Internet].
Diffuse ST depression with ST elevation in aVR: Is this pattern specific for global ischemia due to left main coronaryarterydisease? Incidence of an acute coronary occlusion. Diffuse ST depression with ST elevation in aVR: Is this pattern specific for global ischemia due to left main coronaryarterydisease?
7) The 2013 ACC/AHA STEMI guidelines consider this a “STEMI equivalent,” where thrombolytic therapy is not contraindicated (Evidence level B, no specific class of recommendation).(16) Reciprocal changes in 12-lead electrocardiography can predict left main coronaryartery lesion in patients with acute myocardial infarction.
The diagnostic coronary angiogram identified only minimal coronaryarterydisease, but there was a severely calcified, ‘immobile’ aortic valve. N Engl J Med 2003; 348:1756-1763, 5/1/2013. The patient was brought directly to the cardiac catheterization lab for PCI, bypassing the ED. Circulation 1970;41:623-627 9.
