Association of mild to moderate kidney dysfunction with coronary artery calcification in patients with suspected coronary artery disease

摘要：

Background To report the association between kidney dysfunction and coronary artery calcification (CAC) score(CACS) among patients with clinically suspected coronary artery disease (CAD).Methods We prospectively included 1,572 consecutive patients with clinically suspected CAD who underwent ECG-gated cardiac CT scans using 64-multidetector row computed tomography.CACS was quantified using a previously described method.Renal function was assessed by the estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR).OrdinalLogistic regression and Pearson correlation were used to analyze the association between eGFR and CACS.
