Diagnostic accuracy of treadmill exercise tests among Chinese women with coronary artery diseases: A systematic review and meta-analysis

TET may be used as a triage test for women with suspected and subclinical CAD. The positive results of TET should be treated with caution because of its higher false-positive, especially for premenopausal/perimenopausal women, and further confirmatory diagnosis is needed. However, patients with negative TET results could be precluded for further evaluation using CAG, and avoid unnecessary risk and economic burden to patients.
