... % lipid area was greater in plaques that caused acute coronary syndrome than in plaques that did not cause acute coronary syndrome (72 ± 10 versus 50 ± 16%, p<0.001). The % fibrous area was smaller in plaques that caused acute coronary syndrome than in plaques that did not cause acute coronary syndrome (23 ± 6 versus 47 ± 14%, p<0.001) ( Figure 5). The optimum cutoffs for the calculation of diagnostic accuracy to classify plaques that caused acute coronary syndrome were obtained from the ROC curve. ...
