This observational study examines coronary calcium index variations by gender and age in patients, highlighting implications for cardiovascular risk assessment.
Certainly! Here is a literary English translation of your fragment, suitable for scientific or academic publication: Assessment of coronary artery calcium (CAC) is an important factor in the timely identification of patients at high risk for coronary events. According to the 2024 guidelines of the European Society of Cardiology for the management of chronic coronary syndromes, multislice computed tomography (MSCT) with CAC quantification has been proposed as one of the models for risk restratification in coronary artery disease (CAD). The CAC marker is particularly relevant for asymptomatic patients. This study consecutively included 733 patients with suspected CAD based on clinical data and/or the results of an exercise stress test (bicycle ergometry). The results obtained confirmed the necessity of incorporating coronary calcium assessment into the standard evaluation of patients with low cardiovascular risk, in order to optimize management and treatment strategies.
