Objective:

Add clinical implications of the predictive model.

Key Findings:
  • Include specific statistical values for independent predictors.
Interpretation:

Emphasize potential impact on clinical practice.

Limitations:
  • Add point about diversity of patient population due to single-center design.
Conclusion:

Integrating PCAT radiomics with CCTA-derived functional parameters improves MACE prediction in CAS patients, with the combined GPR model demonstrating optimal accuracy and clinical benefit.
