- Using the coronary artery calcium score to predict coronary heart disease events: a systematic review and meta-analysis. (2004, background): “Adjusted odds ratios (ORs) comparing risk of a coronary heart disease event in persons with low (1-100), medium (101-400), and high ( 400) coronary artery calcium (CAC) scores to persons without calcification.”
- Multi-Ethnic Study of Atherosclerosis: objectives and design. (2002, background): “The risk of clinical events associated with subclinical disease measures has been shown to be graded and continuous (1, 2, 4, 11), similar to risk associated with conventional CVD risk factors such as blood pressure and serum cholesterol, suggesting that interventions yielding even modest reductions”
