“Coronary artery calcium definitely deserves a place in the guidelines for use,” he said. “I think there has been a significant amount of evidence that shows a coronary calcium score improves risk prediction of who is going to have events better than any other biomarker or test . . . . It can tell you who might have lower risk than you previously thought or who might be at higher risk than you thought. When compared with any other test that we have, it has a better ability to accurately predict those events.”

Statins Provide No Clinical Benefit When Coronary Calcium Is Zero, Study Shows

In the new study, which was published online October 31, 2018, ahead of print in the Journal of American College of Cardiology, researchers conducted a retrospective analysis of 13,644 patients who underwent coronary artery calcium (CAC) screening between 2002 and 2009 at Walter Reed Army Medical Center to determine the effects of statins on cardiovascular events. Overall, patients had a low burden of risk factors for atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD) and more than two-thirds had no detectable CAC. Of those included in the analysis, 6,886 were treated with a statin, with nearly half of these patients prescribed the lipid-lowering therapy in the 6 months before the CAC test. Two-thirds of patients were treated with a moderate-intensity statin and 19.3% received a high-intensity statin. The median follow-up was 9.4 years.

In an analysis comparing patients positive or negative for coronary calcium (any amount greater than zero), patients with detectable CAC prescribed a statin had a 24% lower relative risk of MI, stroke, or cardiovascular death when compared with those with evidence of CAC not treated with a statin (adjusted subhazard ratio 0.76; 95% CI 0.60-0.95). In contrast, among patients with no evidence of calcification (CAC score = 0), there was no difference in the risk of major cardiovascular events among those treated with a statin compared with those not treated with a statin.

Yep. That's what I said.

See this everyone by multi troll Greggary?

Take a good look at it and then totally IGNORE this unhealthy cyber junkie troll who is STILL GOOGLING bits n pieces and attempting to offer professional medical advice.

IF your medical practitioner prescribes statins for YOUR particular set of circumstances then please listen to your doctor.

A person's age and weight and other particular medical conditions affect what is prescribed for you.

Relying on Googled medical advice may in fact HARM your health.

Relying on Googled medical information by Greggary, an old obese nobody with lots of medical and psychiatric issues who has lived on Yahoo and many other online forums (not just OzPol and Monk's Manure Mound) under multitudes of aliases...WILL DEFINITELY HARM your health.

Groggy is not qualified in any area of medicine nor is he privy to any person's private medical files here. As such he should be ignored and reported.

Oh God! Emucorp STFU! You've been pwned good and proper. No one cares about some stupid googled study you found whilst superglued to that multi cyber junkie troll chair of yours.

You've got a lot of health issues yourself. Mental and Physical. Sort yourself out FIRST before pretending to play doctor online.

Idiot!

“Coronary artery calcium definitely deserves a place in the guidelines for use,” he said. “I think there has been a significant amount of evidence that shows a coronary calcium score improves risk prediction of who is going to have events better than any other biomarker or test . . . . It can tell you who might have lower risk than you previously thought or who might be at higher risk than you thought. When compared with any other test that we have, it has a better ability to accurately predict those events.”

Statins Provide No Clinical Benefit When Coronary Calcium Is Zero, Study Shows

In the new study, which was published online October 31, 2018, ahead of print in the Journal of American College of Cardiology, researchers conducted a retrospective analysis of 13,644 patients who underwent coronary artery calcium (CAC) screening between 2002 and 2009 at Walter Reed Army Medical Center to determine the effects of statins on cardiovascular events. Overall, patients had a low burden of risk factors for atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD) and more than two-thirds had no detectable CAC. Of those included in the analysis, 6,886 were treated with a statin, with nearly half of these patients prescribed the lipid-lowering therapy in the 6 months before the CAC test. Two-thirds of patients were treated with a moderate-intensity statin and 19.3% received a high-intensity statin. The median follow-up was 9.4 years.

In an analysis comparing patients positive or negative for coronary calcium (any amount greater than zero), patients with detectable CAC prescribed a statin had a 24% lower relative risk of MI, stroke, or cardiovascular death when compared with those with evidence of CAC not treated with a statin (adjusted subhazard ratio 0.76; 95% CI 0.60-0.95). In contrast, among patients with no evidence of calcification (CAC score = 0), there was no difference in the risk of major cardiovascular events among those treated with a statin compared with those not treated with a statin.

Yep. That's what I said.

Soooo... gweggy tujd is revolting against medical advice about statins ...

No, I'm following the medical advice.

I suggest you read the medical study again.

It backs me up 100%.

Is English your first language? I'm curious.

Oh God! Emucorp STFU! You've been pwned good and proper. No one cares about some stupid googled study you found whilst superglued to that multi cyber junkie troll chair of yours.

You've got a lot of health issues yourself. Mental and Physical. Sort yourself out FIRST before pretending to play doctor online.

Idiot!
