Barascuk et al. BMC Cardiovascular Disorders 2011, 11:75 /1471-2261/11/75 RESEARCH ARTICLE Open Access Abdominal aortic calcification quantified by the Morphological Atherosclerotic Calcification Distribution (MACD) index is associated with features of the metabolic syndrome 1*† 1,2† 1,2 3 4 1 Natasha Barascuk , Melanie Ganz , Mads Nielsen , Thomas C Register , Lars M Rasmussen , Morten A Karsdal and Claus Christiansen1 Abstract Background: Abdominal aortic calcifications (AAC) predict cardiovascular mortality. A new scoring model for AAC, the Morphological Atherosclerotic Calcification Distribution (MACD) index may contribute with additional information to the commonly used Aortic Calcification Severity (AC24) score, when predicting death from cardiovascular disease (CVD). In this study we investigated associations of MACD and AC24 with traditional metabolic-syndrome associated risk factors at baseline and after 8.3 years follow-up, to identify biological parameters that may account for the differential performance of these indices. Methods: Three hundred and eight healthy women aged 48 to 76 years, were followed for 8.3 ± 0.3 years. AAC was quantified using lumbar radiographs. Baseline data included age, weight, blood pressure, blood lipids, and glucose levels. Pearson correlation coefficients were used to test for relationships. Results: At baseline and across all patients, MACD correlated with blood glucose (r2 = 0.1, P 0.001) and to a lesser, but significant extent with traditional risk factors (p 0.01) of CVD. In the longitudinal analysis of correlations between baseline biological parameters and the follow-up calcification assessment using radiographs we found LDL-cholest
