Active, not recruiting
Conditions
Coronary Artery Disease
Registration Number
NCT05409209
Lead Sponsor
Changhai Hospital
Brief Summary

This multicenter study involved 5 hospitals (Changhai Hospital; Yueyang Hospital of Shanghai University of Traditional Chinese Medicine; Gongli Hospital; Putuo Hospital of Shanghai University of Traditional Chinese Medicine; No. 904 Hospital of the PLA Joint Logistics Support Force Wuxi). The study enrolled 5000 patients for suspected CAD who referred to coronary angiography from January 2017 through December 2018.

Detailed Description

Patients with coronary artery disease who were confirmed by coronary angiography were eligible for the study. Carotid ultrasonography was performed before coronary angiography, and carotid intima-media thickness (IMT), maximum thickness and length of all plaques were measured.
