Relationship between sexual differences and cardiovascular risk factors in the prevalence of asymptomatic coronary disease
International Journal of Cardiology(2022)
Abstract
•A total of 6434 asymptomatic subjects without known CAD underwent CCTA.•The prevalence of CAD (stenosis ≥50%) were compared by sex according to the number of conventional cardiovascular risk factors.•There were 1740 women (27.0%) and 4694 men (73.0%) in the study.•Asymptomatic CAD was identified in 65 women (3.7%) and 429 men (9.1%), and the association was significant (P < 0.001).•As the number of risk factors increased, the risk difference gap in women and men decreased. (P interaction <0.001).
