    Breast Arterial Calcification: A Potential Screening Tool for Heart Disease - 8 month(s) ago

    Home > CardioNerds > Breast Arterial Calcification: A Potential Screening Tool for Heart Disease Routine preventive care for women includes a mammogram every other year beginning at age 40. During her talk at the 2023 American Society of Preventive Cardiology Annual Congress on Cardiovascular Disease Prevention in Arlington, Texas, Dr. Tammy Polonsky, of the University of Chicago, discussed studies that have found a novel w ay to utilize an incidental finding seen on mammograms. A mammogram involves

    Individuals With a History of Heart Disease Are Underusing Aspirin - 9 month(s) ago

    A new study found that, worldwide, aspirin is underused as a prevention measure in individuals with a history of cardiovascular disease (CVD). The findings were reported in JAMA. “Aspirin is an effective and low-cost option for reducing CVD events and improving mortality rates among individuals with established CVD. To guide efforts to mitigate the global CVD burden, there is a need to understand current levels of aspirin use for secondary prevention of CVD,” the researchers wrote. In this cross-sectional

    Exercise electrocardiography for pre-test assessment of the likelihood of coronary artery disease - 9 month(s) ago

    Objectives To develop a tool including exercise electrocardiography (ExECG) for patient-specific clinical likelihood estimation of patients with suspected obstructive coronary artery disease (CAD). Methods An ExECG-weighted clinical likelihood (ExECG-CL) model was developed in a training cohort of patients with suspected obstructive CAD undergoing ExECG. Next, the ExECG-CL model was applied in a CAD validation cohort undergoing ExECG and clinically driven invasive coronary angiography and a prognosis validation cohort and compared with the risk factor-weighted clinical likelihood (RF-CL) model for obstructive CAD discrimination and prognostication, respectively. In the CAD validation cohort, obstructive CAD was defined as >50% diameter stenosis on invasive coronary angiography. For prognosis, the endpoint was non-fatal myocardial infarction and death. Results The training cohort consisted of 1214 patients (mean age 57 years, 57% males). In the CAD (N=408; mean age 55 years, 53% males)
