Combining personality traits with traditional risk factors for coronary stenosis: an artificial neural networks solution in patients with computed tomography detected coronary artery disease.

In particular, anger seems to be the main personality factor for CAP in addition to traditional risk factors. PMID: 24198964 [PubMed]
