Abstract in brief

  • The study analyzed how specific features of coronary artery plaques seen on CT scans, like positive remodeling, low attenuation, and calcification, are linked to a higher risk of serious heart events over 5 years in patients suspected of having coronary artery disease.
  • Patients with these adverse plaque features, especially when combined with obstructive disease, had a significantly increased risk—up to 10 times higher—of heart attacks or death compared to those with normal arteries.
  • Importantly, these plaque characteristics' impact on risk was closely related to the overall amount of calcified plaque, as measured by the calcium score, indicating that plaque burden plays a key role in predicting adverse cardiovascular outcomes.]
