de Liefde I, Hoeks S, van Gestel Y, Klein J, Bax J, Verhagen H, et al.
Eur J Vasc Endovasc Surg . 2009 Jul; 38(4):482-7. PMID: 19586784

Methionine loading does not enhance the predictive value of homocysteine serum testing for all-cause mortality or major adverse cardiac events
Dunkelgrun M, Hoeks S, Schouten O, Feringa H, Welten G, Vidakovic R, et al.
Intern Med J . 2008 Mar; 39(1):13-8. PMID: 18336539

The influence of aging on the prognostic value of the revised cardiac risk index for postoperative cardiac complications in vascular surgery patients
Welten G, Schouten O, van Domburg R, Feringa H, Hoeks S, Dunkelgrun M, et al.
Eur J Vasc Endovasc Surg . 2007 Jun; 34(6):632-8. PMID: 17587611
Objective: The Lee-risk index [Lee-index] was developed to predict major adverse cardiac events [MACE]. However, age is not included as a risk factor. The aim was to assess the value...
