Inducible nitric oxide synthase inhibition of weibel-palade body release in cardiac transplant rejection.

abstract：BACKGROUND:The future risk of myocardial infarction is commonly assessed using cardiovascular risk scores, coronary artery calcium score, or coronary artery stenosis severity. We assessed whether noncalcified low-attenuation plaque burden on coronary CT angiography (CCTA) might be a better predictor of the future risk ...
