The history, ECG, age, risk factors, and troponin (HEART) score was developed as a rapid risk stratification tool. It has ...

By creating artificial aging in mice, researchers at Lund University in Sweden have been able to track the formation of ...

Background The concept of non-atherosclerotic coronary artery pathology in sudden cardiac death (SCD) has not been given the attention it deserves. Objective To determine the incidence of ...

Background— Since the broad dissemination of practice guidelines, the association of specialty care with the treatment of patients with acute coronary syndromes has not been studied. Methods and ...

Objective Low association between cardiac symptoms and coronary artery disease (CAD) in patients with inflammatory joint diseases (IJD) demands for objective markers to improve cardiovascular risk ...

Cardiovascular diseases remain the primary cause of death in developed countries. In most cases, exploration of possibly underlying coronary artery pathologies is performed using X-ray coronary ...

Frame design influences critical parameters such as radial strength, flexibility, fatigue resistance and conformability to ...

Objective Externally validated pretest probability models for risk stratification of subjects with chest pain and suspected stable coronary artery disease (CAD), determined through invasive coronary ...

Objectives In the care of coronary artery disease (CAD), evidence questions the adequate application of guidelines for cardiovascular procedures, particularly coronary angiographies (CA) and ...

Spontaneous coronary artery rupture is a rare disorder that is mostly associated with a known underlying disorder (eg, Ehlers Danlos syndrome) and even more rarely not associated with any known ...

But Don says he does value Kay’s caregiving — including the many hours she’s spent with him in hospitals, tracking every drug and procedure and, he says, warding off disaster. She’s helped him through ...

We found that high-volume exercise (>3,000 MET-min/week) was associated with a greater burden of subclinical coronary atherosclerosis — measured by coronary artery calcium score and coronary CT ...
