Key result
The left anterior descending coronary artery experienced less displacement (p=0.009) but higher torsion (p=0.03) compared to the right coronary artery.
Observational
p-value: p=0.009
Differences in coronary arterial motion parameters, such as higher torsion in the LAD compared to the RCA, may contribute to variations in susceptibility to atherosclerosis.

Coronary motion differences should not yet inform practice; leaves open their contribution to vessel-specific atherosclerosis risk.
Ding et al. (2000) conducted an observational in Coronary Atherogenesis. Left anterior descending (LAD) coronary artery vs. Right coronary artery (RCA) was evaluated on Coronary arterial motion parameters (displacement and torsion) (p=0.009). The left anterior descending coronary artery experienced less displacement (p=0.009) but higher torsion (p=0.03) compared to the right coronary artery.
