Background— Conventional coronary artery disease (CAD) risk factors fail to explain nearly 50% of CAD events. This study examines the association between electron-beam tomography (EBT) coronary artery calcium (CAC) and cardiac events in initially a

Lung volume reduction surgery for endstage emphysema produces significant improvements in various pulmonary parameters, but its effects on cardiac morphology and function have not been clearly defined. Ten patients scheduled for lung volume reduction

Electron beam tomography (EBT) is a noninvasive method used to detect coronary artery calcium (CAC). Due to the age-associated increase in incidence and magnitude of CAC, interpretation of results can be difficult. The purpose of this study was to de

Background —Because of the success of secondary prevention of coronary events by intense risk factor modification, a more precise measure of atherosclerosis in youth would have great clinical value both in the design of clinical trials for the demo

The effort limitation in primary pulmonary hypertension (PPH) is thought to result from an inability to increase cardiac output with exercise. The precise mechanism, however, is unknown. We studied right ventricular (RV) and left ventricular (LV) fun

Two hundred sixteen patients undergoing coronary artery bypass graft procedures were randomized to receive either high-dose aprotinin or placebo. Clinically important postoperative renal insufficiency was infrequent, with a single patient (0.9%) from

Synovial sarcomas that primarily arise from the heart and pericardium are extremely rare, especially the ones involving both sides of the heart. To date, few cases have been reviewed in the literature. Our patient was a 36-year-old man who presented

The differences observed in repeated coronary calcium measurements underscores the importance of considering reproducibility issues when evaluating the significance of serial calcium scores. Furthermore, reproducibility data have important implicatio

PURPOSE: Electron beam tomography (EBT) is a noninvasive measure of coronary artery calcium (CAC), a marker for atherosclerosis. In this study we examined the association between conventional risk factors for coronary artery disease (CAD) and CAC. ME

Ultrafast computed tomography has been reported to be an accurate method of measuring left ventricular mass in dogs. To assess the interstudy, intraobserver and interobserver variability or left ventricular myocardial mass measurements in humans, lef
