… in case of symptomatic or post-ACS population we all know the
balance between components of vulnerability (i.e. plaque – blood –
myocardium) shifts toward increasing the role of blood and
myocardium.

Subject: RE: Association vs classification
Let's not forget the most important question, the short-
term prediction (<5y) in search of the Vulnerable Patient.
We didn't start SHAPE just to engineer a new paradigm. The concept of
search for the Vulnerable Patient, those at a very high risk of a near term
event is by itself a new paradigm and requires new approaches. Preventive
cardiology today does not have any recognition for this group and put them all
together with high risk. ……
