Silent ischemia increases mortality in patients with coronary risk factors

Silent ischemia increases mortality in patients with coronary risk factors
In a study of 2682 men without known coronary heart disease (CHD) followed for 10 years, the presence of asymptomatic ST segment depression during or after exercise was a predictor of CHD mortality in high-risk men; this association was not seen in low-risk men without risk factors.
Data from: Laukkanen JA, Kurl S, Lakka TA. J Am Coll Cardiol 2001; 38:72.
