We have formally requested the retraction of our KETO-CTA paper from JACC Advances. This decision came after discovering many unusual patterns with the Cleerly dataset, that the data it was working with was not fully blinded, and finally, that individual resubmissions of participant scans to its platform substantially differed.
For more details on these challenges watch:

Despite our offer to cover all costs, Cleerly has declined to perform a fully blinded analysis. In this video, I explain the timeline of our retraction request and why this step is vital for scientific integrity.
