More Book Details

Description of the Book:

A prospective study to investigate the reported association of earlobe crease with coronary artery disease was carried out in 1172 largely asymptomatic male patients medically evaluated to determine fitness to fly. A subset of 172 men had coronary angiography and 28% were found to have coronary artery disease. We found a strong statistical association between earlobe creases and age, in both our total group of 1172 patients and the 172 who had coronary angiography. We conclude that the earlobe crease is associated with age and age is strongly associated with coronary artery disease; but, after removing the effect of age, earlobe creases do not further improve the prediction of coronary artery disease.
