Popis:	In order to improve PCE-based ASCVD risk prediction, especially for those with intermediate risk (i.e. 5-7.5%), the ACC/AHA risk assessment working group had called for research into novel risk markers. We therefore evaluated the incremental benefit of LV mass index (LVMI) over the PCE We included
