Popis:	This study evaluated the associations between aortic arch calcification (AAC) with pericardial fat (PF) mass detected on a single chest X-ray image and predictive variables of future cardiovascular disease (CVD). The subjects were 353 patients treated with at least one of the hypertension, dyslipidemia or diabetes. All subjects were evaluated for AAC; divided into 3 groups with AAC grades of 0, 1, or 2; and examined for the presence of PF. Carotid intima-media thickness (IMT, n = 353), cardio-ankle vascular index (CAVI, n = 218), the Suita score (n = 353), and cardiovascular risk points defined in the Hisayama study (n = 353), an assessment of the risk of future cardiovascular disease, were measured. The relationship of AAC grades, with or without PF, and CVD risks was evaluated. The IMT (1.62 ± 0.74 mm, 2.33 ± 1.26, and 2.43 ± 0.89 in patients with AAC grade 0, 1 and 2, respectively, p
