There was no correlation between detected LDL levels at baseline and total plaque score in either the ketogenic diet group or the Miami Heart control group.

“and now you could correlate that against the TPS the total plaque score so how much did LDL correlate to the total plaque score and you can see that in the graph pretty easily there's no correlation there's no correlation in our group or in the Miami Heart Group there's just no correlation between uh detected LDL levels at Baseline and resulting plaque which again would counter expectations um if looked at context independently”

“what did surprise me and it comes with caveats when I say this so he my whole sentence right if the area under the curve were reversed where those who are on the keto side it was statistically non-significant but trending up compared to Miami Hart I think many people would conclude okay so maybe they're maybe they're not there yet it's a slower process but that's where they're headed so that's the only reason I bring it up I don't want to give the impression that uh the people in our group are just straight up doing better because again it's not statistically significant but it does lead me to believe that they're not trending toward worse thus far and I think that's a responsible way of sort of putting that”
