Figure 2 Probability of significant disease at catheterization across Duke Treadmill Scores for men (solid line) and women (dashed line) as the result of a logistic model containing DTS and gender. Vertical lines divide the Duke Treadmill Scores into high risk (= –11), moderate risk (between –11 and 5) and low risk (= 5).
