Correlation between differences in coronary artery diameter Z-score and intimal cross-sectional area. The median difference in UCG-determined coronary artery diameter Z-score between acute and convalescent phase was 2.37 (range 0.22–13.90). OCT examination revealed intimal thickening in many patients, and there was a correlation between the difference in UCG-determined coronary artery diameter Z-score between acute and convalescent phases and OCT-determined intimal cross-sectional area (rs = 0.366, 95% confidence interval: − 0.219 to 0.579; p = 0.028)
