Patient and vessel based analysis and PCAT measures

PCAT Volume (cm3) Any Plaque hs-CRP >2 No Plaque, hs-CRP >2 No Plaque, hs-CRP <1 p value
All coronaries 39.65 ± 2.67 22.37 ± 2.90 24.72 ± 3.42 < 0.001
LAD* 10.50 ± 1.05 5.83 ± 1.03 5.82 ± 1.33 0.003
LCx 9.55 ± 0.99 6.49 ± 0.91 6.00 ± 1.16 0.039
RCA 18.21 ± 1.60 14.24 ± 1.46 13.11± 1.90 0.051

Values are reported as mean ± standard error. PCAT denotes pericoronary adipose tissue, hs-CRP, high sensitivity C-reactive protein; LAD, left anterior descending artery; LCx, left circumflex artery; RCA, right coronary artery. All mixed effect models were accounted for the matching performed and are adjusted for BMI, hypertension, and hyperlipidemia.
