✅ Smoking & HTN accelerate CAC onset
✅ Earlier CAC screening & personalized prevention in high-risk groups.
📌 Implications:
🔹 CAC >0 = higher ASCVD risk → consider earlier statin therapy.
🔹 Race & sex matter in risk stratification.
🔹 CAC screening could improve primary prevention in younger adults.

Think cigars & smokeless tobacco are “safer”? Think again. 🚨 New research links non-cigarette tobacco to higher inflammation & early signs of CV harm. Hs-CRP and IL-6 can be biomarkers to detect CVD before clinical symptoms. 🫀
