🙏🙏Please RT far and wide 🙏🙏

KETO-CTA (#LMHRstudy) vs Matched Controls (#MiHeart)

METHODS – 80 participants from the #LMHRstudy were matched 1:1 with asymptomatic subjects from #MiHeart, considering age, gender, race, diabetes, hyperlipidemia, hypertension, and smoking history.

PRIMARY ANALYSIS – High-resolution heart scans (#CCTA) were used for evaluating Total Plaque Score (TPS), Total Stenosis Score (TSS), and Segment Involvement Score (SIS).

RESULTS
Matched mean age: 55.5 years, with average #LDL cholesterol of 272 mg/dL (max LDL-C of 591 mg/dL) after an average of 4.7 years on a ketogenic diet.

🚨 There was no significant difference in coronary plaque burden between the #LMHRstudy group (mean LDL-C 272) and #MiHeart controls (mean LDL-C 123 mg/dL); note: pre-KETO LDL-C in the KETO group was 122 mg/dL.

🚨 No significant difference in CAC (median and IQR) [0 (0, 56)] vs [1 (0, 49)], p = 0.520.

🚨 No correlation between elevated LDL-C and plaque levels.

⚠️ NOTE: This analysis focuses on baseline scans. More data will follow from the Keto-CTA longitudinal study in the coming months. Please continue to consult your healthcare provider.

🙏🙏🙏 A huge thank you to everyone who made this milestone publication possible. 🙏🙏🙏
