BackgroundAtherosclerosis is the underlying process causing coronary artery calcification. Pathophysiology of aortic and mitral valve calcification has several similarities with coronary atherosclerosis, but their correlation has not been clear, especially in patients with coronary atherosclerosis.PurposeThis study aims to investigate the correlation between the calcium score of the coronary arteries, aortic, and mitral valves in patients with coronary atherosclerosis.MethodsThis was a cross-sectional, correlation study. Stratified randomization was done based on the coronary artery calcium score category. The calcium score was calculated using Agatston technique. Statistical tests were done to look for the correlations between the coronary artery and aortic valve calcium score, coronary artery and mitral valve calcium score, as well as coronary artery and aortic + mitral valve calcium score.ResultsThere are ninety …
