Abstract
Aims Coronary artery calcium score (CACS) is a strong predictor of major adverse cardiac events (MACE). Conversely, statins, which markedly reduce MACE risk, increase CACS. We explored whether CACS progression represents compositional plaque volume (PV) progression differently according to statin use. Methods and results From a prospective multinational registry of consecutive patients (n = 2252) who underwent serial coronary computed tomography...
