1a ). There was a significant trend towards an increasing incidence of calcium with advancing age, both in the cardiac ( p < 0.001) and extra-cardiac ( p = 0.032) regions (Fig. 1b ).

Survival curves for arteries in the abdominal territories also showed a trend towards reduced survival, but only SMA and CIA calcium were associated with significantly lower survival in comparison to those without calcification ( p < 0.01).
