Background: This study utilized videos from a child's and an adult's perspective to determine whether perspective influences the number of hazards identified by parents.
Methods: The study measured number of household dangers parents' identified. Parents (n=106) were randomized to view either the child or adult perspective videos.
Background: Digital thermal monitoring (DTM) of vascular function was shown to correlate with the presence of known coronary artery disease (CAD).
Objective: We evaluated whether DTM can identify at-risk, asymptomatic patients with significant coronary artery calcium (CAC) or increased Framingham risk score (FRS).
Methods: Two hundred thirty-three consecutive asymptomatic subjects (58 +/- 11 years; 62% men) without known CAD underwent DTM, CAC, and FRS calculation.
