Computed Tomography, Coronary Angiography, and Intravascular Ultrasound in the Diagnosis of Left Anterior Descending Stenosis in a 38-Year-Old Woman with a Calcium Score of Zero

Diagnostics
Cardiovascular diseases, including coronary artery disease, are the leading cause of mortality in the general population. The likelihood of significant coronary artery disease occurring in young women (

Evaluating the Implications of a Coronary Artery Calcium Score of Zero (CAC = 0) in Modern Risk Prediction: Is Zero Truly Zero?

Cureus
Coronary artery calcium (CAC) scoring is a well-validated screening tool used to calculate the amount of calcified plaque deposited in coronary arteries from a computed tomography (CT) scan. It stratifies patients by risk to predict their future probability of cardiovascular disease and helps establish the ideal preventive therapies.

The correlation between US calcium scores and CT calcium score.

, 2016
The correlation between calcium scores measured with CT (CT calcium score) and ultrasound (US calcium score) for different amounts of calcium (2-50mg). There is a significant correlation between the two techniques with R2 = 0.7391, p

Machine learning-based time-to-event survival analysis in pediatric patients with severe sepsis

Frontiers in Pediatrics
BackgroundPediatric sepsis remains a leading cause of mortality in critically ill children worldwide. Current approaches to sepsis prognosis rely on clinical criteria and biomarkers with variable performance. This study aimed to develop and validate time-

The involvement of calcium carriers and of the vacuole in the glucose-induced calcium signaling and activation of the plasma membrane H+-ATPase in Saccharomyces cerevisiae cells.

, 2012
Previous work from our laboratories demonstrated that the sugar-induced activation of plasma membrane H+-ATPase in Saccharomyces cerevisiae is dependent on calcium metabolism with the contribution of calcium influx from external medium.

Comparing predictive risk to actual presence of coronary atherosclerosis on coronary computed tomography angiography

American Heart Journal Plus
Background: There is limited data showing the predictive accuracy of traditional cardiovascular risk scores (CVRS) to predict asymptomatic coronary artery disease (CAD) determined by coronary computed tomography angiography (CCTA).

Diagnostic utility of coronary artery calcium score percentiles and categories to exclude abnormal scans and relevant ischemia in rubidium positron emission tomography

Frontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine
BackgroundDespite clinical suspicion, most non-invasive ischemia tests for coronary artery disease (CAD) reveal unremarkable results. Patients with a coronary artery calcium score (CACS) of zero rarely have an abnormal positron emission tomography (PET ...

Comparison of Coronary Artery Calcium Score and Serum Calcium, Phosphorus, and Gamma-Glutamyl Transferase Levels in Patients with Coronary Artery Imaging by Multi-Sectional Computed Tomography with Chronic Ischemic Heart Disease Prediagnosis

Introduction: Coronary artery disease (CAD) is a leading cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide. Calcification of the coronary artery wall is a definite indicator of coronary atherosclerosis.
