Does higher cardiorespiratory fitness reduce cardiovascular disease events across all coronary artery calcium levels in generally healthy middle-age men?
Higher cardiorespiratory fitness attenuates cardiovascular disease risk regardless of coronary artery calcium levels in healthy middle-aged men.
In a large cohort of generally healthy men, there is an attenuation of CVD risk at all CAC levels with higher CRF.
Radford et al. (Wed,) studied this question.
