| Abstract |
Noninvasive coronary CT angiography (CCTA) was used to retrospectively analyze the characteristics of coronary artery disease (CAD) in patients with thoracic tumors and the impact of the results on clinical surgery decision-making, thus increasing the understanding of perioperative cardiac risk evaluation. A total of 779 patients (age 68.6 ± 6.6 years) with thoracic tumor (lung, esophageal, and mediastinal tumor) scheduled for non-cardiac surgery were retrospectively enrolled. Patients were divided into two groups: accepted or canceled surgery. Clinical data and CCTA results were compared between the two groups, and multivariate logistic regression analysis was performed to determine predictors of the events of cancellations of scheduled surgeries. 634 patients (81.4%) had non-significant CAD and 145 patients (18.6%) had significant CAD. Single‑, 2‑, and 3‑ vessel disease was found in 173 (22.2%), 93 (11.9%) and 50 (6.4%) patients, respectively. 500 (64.2%), 96 (12.3%), 96 (12.3%), 56 (7.2%) and 31 (4.0%) patients were rated as CACS 0, 1-99, 100-399, 400-999 and > 1000, respectively. Cancellations of scheduled procedures continue to increase based on the severity of the stenosis and the number of major coronary artery stenosis. The degree of stenosis and the number of vascular stenosis were independent predictors of cancelling scheduled surgery. For patients with thoracic tumors scheduled for non-cardiac surgery, the results suggested by CCTA significantly influenced surgery planning and facilitated to reduce perioperative cardiovascular events. |

Attention Score in Context
This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 1. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 21 March 2023.
All research outputs
#19,015,492
of 23,567,572 outputs
Outputs from Journal of Cardiothoracic Surgery
#665
of 1,279 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#225,671
of 330,920 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Journal of Cardiothoracic Surgery
#14
of 26 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 23,567,572 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 11th percentile – i.e., 11% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.
So far Altmetric has tracked 1,279 research outputs from this source. They receive a mean Attention Score of 2.2. This one is in the 24th percentile – i.e., 24% of its peers scored the same or lower than it.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 330,920 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one is in the 21st percentile – i.e., 21% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
We're also able to compare this research output to 26 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one is in the 38th percentile – i.e., 38% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
