They released the total plaque volume change on twitter. The number 18 seems to be the one that people are challenged by.
17:26:13 From Moira Newiss The Brain Energy Reboot Expert : Are you saying that the before and after measurements are not really comparable?
17:26:43 From Sameer Dossani : Replying to “Are you saying that …”

No, he’s saying that you can’t take data from one study and make conclusions about another study.
17:27:14 From Moira Newiss The Brain Energy Reboot Expert : Replying to “Are you saying that …”

Yes, I got that but I thought he was suggesting the other too – good to know not!
17:27:37 From S9061797 : Replying to “Are you saying that …”

… but n=100 doesn’t help – hence the fairly low quality of fit even with baseline plaque?
17:30:57 From Sameer Dossani : Replying to “Are you saying that …”

@S9061797 N=100 doesn’t mean that it’s meaningless. Maybe it can’t answer all the questions, but it does answer some.
17:33:20 From Sameer Dossani : Statins increase NO signalling I believe.
17:34:02 From Mary Murphy : sharryedwards@gmail.com is a guest suggestion. Ivor, it’s okay to kick this can down the road. I just include it in the chat so that’s it’s available should you and Gabor decide to have her for a guest.
17:36:26 From Moira Newiss The Brain Energy Reboot Expert : But there are many risk factors for atherosclerosis…
17:37:54 From Sameer Dossani : I would challenge that a little. The question is whether high ApoB as an isolated variable is inherently athersclerotic. This is the only population within which this question can be tested.
17:40:16 From Idan : Why is it absurd that molecules made by your body can harm you in the long term?
17:42:16 From Ivor Cummins : Nail on head Malcolm.

I used to always share this comparative analysis (KT) exemplar to help people stay within the rational/logical realm. Professor Karl Popper would be laughing in his grave at this one, based on his logical asymmetry of proof rules. This study kinda ended it for me. The Tsimane had broadly the same ApoB levels as the Western population, while they demonstrate the lowest CVD on the planet (the Westerners having the highest CVD on the planet):

And yes the worst Westerners tend to have higher Apob, sure. Because it is a great (but fallible) proxy for Hyperinsulinemia – see here for one example: https://thefatemperor.com/2015-5-5-hilarious-apob-now-being-used-as-predictor-of-insulin-resistance-cholesterol-lchf/

Comparative Analysis and tools of logic….ain’t just for Measles!
17:43:12 From Sameer Dossani : Replying to “Why is it absurd tha…”

You’re kidding right? The human body has millions of years behind it all geared towards one thing – survival. It’s possible that our bodies would want to kill us, but it’s certainly not the null hypothesis. You would need a lot of evidence to support such a hypothesis. And it just doesn’t exist.
17:43:24 From Marion Paul – Saskatchewan, Canada : How long does it take for plaque to calcify?
17:45:07 From S9061797 : Replying to “Why is it absurd tha…”

Devils advocate – some people make an awful lot of insulin. Short term “firefighting” can cause long term issues in some cases. Pulling Calcium out of bones might be another?
17:46:13 From Sameer Dossani : Replying to “Why is it absurd tha…”

But this is in the context of modern diets and modern living. People outside of that context don’t have these issues, or maybe just in really odd genetic abnormalities.
17:54:17 From Sameer Dossani : These issues with the imaging is why they got Matthew Buddoff in the first place! He’s the damn expert!

😄
17:26:54 From Moira Newiss The Brain Energy Reboot Expert : What about this study on women? https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/37958602/
17:27:32 From Moira Newiss The Brain Energy Reboot Expert : It was a great study taking women on keto diets and putting them back on a standard diet and health markers got worse.
17:29:06 From Dominic : Yes Ivor
17:31:32 From Mary Murphy : We missed you so much. It happens where I live too so I understood.
17:35:40 From Dominic : I saw that the butter also included cases where it included seed oils, so the butter wasn’t exactly butter… “Science”
17:37:25 From Mary Murphy : Reminding our hosts that Sharry Edwards’ email is sharryedwards@gmail.com. She’d be a great guest regarding frequencies. Everything is frequency. She has otoacoustic hearing which we all once had.
17:43:43 From Nancy Whittington : Ivor the measles death in Texas was from pneumonia not from measles.

I rarely get sick either. It’s been over 6 years for a cold. I remember because we moved.
17:48:37 From Mary Murphy : Replying to “I haven’t been sick …”

Cool.
17:48:51 From heather.rosa : horizonal and naked Ivor!

17:59:50 From heather.rosa : thanks

Email from Vladimir after session!

Hi Ivor, it was great to talk to you again!

These are article that I mentioned, one on transplant arteriosclerosis:

https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S1359644624003271

and another trying to connect all types of arterial neointimal formations in different diseases:

https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0306987720313785

The irony is that most doctors/scientists likely also doubt the orthodox belief, but they know where money comes from. I admire your persistence, because I feel that nothing could be changed, probably I am wrong.

Lately I switched my effort toward the problem of life origin on Earth, and already published a couple articles.

Talk to you soon.

Vladimir

Fascinating session, thanks!

Whatever the aetiology, Paul Jaminet’s new drug from Angiex–currently starting clinical trials–promises to target all solid tumors with unparalleled off-target low toxicity and may be a great complement to Prof Seyfried’s approach.
