Abstract :
The present study evaluated the association among sonographic characteristics of carotid plaques, angiographic morphology of coronary lesions, and outcomes of patients who had acute coronary syndromes. In treatment-stratified Coxʹs proportional hazards regression analysis, hard carotid plaques and coronary lesions of complex morphology were found to be independent predictors of future cardiac events.
