Fig. 4From: Value of addition of coronary artery calcium to risk scores in the prediction of major cardiovascular events in patients with type 2 diabetesAdjusted hazard ratio for cardiovascular events associated with coronary artery calcium score, based on restricted spline model. For MACE outcome: test of any effect (linearā+ānon-linear), pā=ā0.0003; test of the non-linear components, pā=ā0.0007; test of the linear component: p=ā0.14. For MI/CV death outcome: test of any effect (linearā+ānon-linear), pā=ā0.0011; test of the non-linear components, pā=ā0.0034; test of the linear component: pā=ā0.11. CACSā=ācoronary arteries calcium score (Agatston units); CVā=ācardiovascular; MACEā=āmajor adverse cardiovascular events; MIā=āmyocardial infarctionBack to article page
