AbstractOBJECTIVE: To evaluate the potential age- and gender-specific differences in the incidence and prognostic value of coronary artery disease (CAD) in patients undergoing CT coronary angiography (CTA). DESIGN AND PATIENTS: In this multicentre prospective registry study, 2432 patients (mean age 57 +/- 12, 56% male) underwent CTA for suspected CAD. Patients were stratified into four groups according to age <60 or >/=60 years and, male or female gender. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: A composite end point of cardiac death and non-fatal myocardial infarction. RESULTS: CTA results were normal in 991 (41%) patients, showed non-significant CAD in 761 (31%) patients and significant CAD in the remaining 680 (28%) patients. During follow-up (median 819 days, 25-75th centile 482-1142) a cardiovascular event occurred in 59 (2.4%) patients. The annualised event rate was 1.1% in the total population (men=1.3% and women=0.9%). In patients aged <60 years, the annualised event rate of male and female patients was 0.6% and 0.5%, respectively. Among patients aged >/=60 years the annualised event rate was 1.9% in male and 1.1% in female patients. Observations on CTA predicted events in male patients, both age <60 and >/=60 years and in female patients age >/=60 years (log-rank test in all groups, p<0.01). However, CTA provided limited prognostic value in female patients aged <60 years (log-rank test, p=0.45). CONCLUSIONS: After age and gender stratification, CTA findings were shown to be of limited predictive value in female patients aged <60 years as compared with male patients at any age and female patients aged >/=60 years.
