Coronary artery calcification

Dose of elemental calcium should not exceed 1.5-2 g/d and plasma calcium levels should not exceed 9.5 mg/dL (to avoid coronary artery calcification resulting from excess calcium)... [Pg.176]

Moderately important lesions include conditions that do not require immediate treatment but would likely require investigation, recognition or treatment at a later time. Examples of moderate importance include calculi of various organs, previously known abdominal aneurysms, adrenal masses, pancreatic pseudo cysts, indeterminate cysts of various organs, uterine enlargement in post-menopausal women, and coronary artery calcifications.

The largest study by far included in the Cochrane Review was Women s Health Initiative (WHI) that had some 36,000 women between the ages of 50 and 79 years at baseline, who were randomly assigned with daily calcium and vitamin Dj supplements or a placebo and followed for a mean of seven years (Jackson et al. 2006). In this study alone, no reduction in mortality (cardiovascular or all-cause) from supplementation was observed. A substudy of some 750 women in the WHI were scored for coronary artery calcification after the trial, and there was no change in the score between those supplemented and not (Manson et al. 2010).

In a cross-sectional analysis of seventy patients (46 men, mean age 68 13 years) on warfarin therapy without known coronary artery disease, after adjustment for cardiovascular risk factors, no correlation was observed between duration of warfarin use and coronary artery calcification score on multivariate analysis (r = 0.075, p = 0.537).29...
