摘要: Abstract OBJECTIVES We sought to determine the prognostic accuracy of electron beam computed tomographic (EBCT) scanning coronary arteries at three four years. BACKGROUND Coronary artery calcium scores determined by EBCT correlate with severity disease. However, previous reports for events in asymptomatic individuals are conflicting. METHODS Asymptomatic men and women undergoing completed initial follow-up evaluations, which included past medical history, Rose angina questionnaire interim cardiovascular events. Reported (death, nonfatal myocardial infarction [MI] revascularization procedures) were confirmed without knowledge scan results. RESULTS Information was obtained 1,172 (99.6%) 1,177 eligible subjects (baseline age 53 ± 11 years, 71% men). During an average 3.6 39 sustained events: deaths, 15 MIs 21 procedures. The mean score 764 935 among as compared 135 432 those (p CONCLUSIONS In adults, predicts death MI need
