This episode is brought to you by ⁠⁠The Primal Skincare.⁠⁠ We are told that high cholesterol and LDL cause heart disease; this is not the case. We have lowered saturated fat and cholesterol drastically, yet heart disease is still the number one killer worldwide. Dr Ovadia, a board-certified heart surgeon, will discuss how to fix your heart, the truth about cholesterol as a risk marker, and how insulin resistance drives plaque in the arteries. In this episode, we explain:The Statin Trap: Why cholesterol-lowering drugs can increase insulin resistance and cause long-term harm to your health.The Real Enemy: How processed foods and industrial seed oils drive the arterial inflammation that leads to heart attacks. Insulin Resistance: The hidden, underlying root cause of heart disease that standard tests usually miss.Protective Fats: Why natural animal fats do not cause heart failure and why real meat acts as medicine for your body.Reversing Plaque: How switching your diet and fixing your metabolism can clear your arteries and restore your heart.

80 Prozent der Patientinnen und Patienten nach einem Herzinfarkt oder Schlaganfall erreichen ihren LDL-Zielwert von unter 55 Milligramm pro Deziliter nicht. Dabei sind Herzerkrankungen die Todesursache Nummer 1. Bei Krebs gibt es Vorsorge, Diagnose, begleitete Therapie, Nachsorge und Register. Warum fehlt das beim Herzen – und wo muss Prävention ansetzen? Darüber spricht EinBlick-Redakteur Christoph Nitz mit Prof. Ksenija Stach. Sie leitet seit Juli 2025 das Department für Endokrinologie und Diabetologie am Klinikum Ernst von Bergmann in Potsdam und ist Professorin für Innere Medizin, Endokrinologie und Diabetologie der HMU Health and Medical University Potsdam. Zuvor leitete sie die Lipidambulanz der Universitätsmedizin Mannheim. Beim Kongress für Gesundheitsnetzwerker sprach sie im März 2026 über Investitionen in die Herzgesundheit. Die Themen der Folge: – Warum LDL zählt: LDL-Cholesterin ist der am besten beeinflussbare Risikofaktor, denn ohne LDL-Cholesterin entsteht kein Plaque. Der erste Schritt ist, die Werte zu messen. Doch den Check-up 35 nehmen nach Stachs Angaben nur 30 Prozent der Bevölkerung wahr, weil die Information zu wenige Menschen erreicht. – Register wie bei Krebs: Hierzulande gibt es Kampagnen wie ›Auf Ziel‹ der Deutschen Gesellschaft für Lipidologie DGFL, aber nach ihren Worten keine Register. In Schweden werden alle Patientinnen und Patienten nach einem Herzinfarkt erfasst. Die Kliniken stehen mit ihren Ergebnissen beim LDL-Zielwert in der Zeitung. Die Besten werden ausgezeichnet, und der Letztplatzierte muss bei ihnen lernen. – Netzwerk in Potsdam: Ein niedergelassener Kollege, der auch bei Kindern das Cholesterin misst, hat dort ein Kompetenznetzwerk aufgebaut. Wer das bezahlt? »Na, niemand.« – Wearables und die »Cholesterinlüge«: Schritte, Herzfrequenz, EKG und Blutdruck haben viele per Wearable im Blick. Das Gesundheitsbewusstsein wächst, aber nicht in allen sozialen Schichten. Cholesterin hat an Ansehen verloren, auch durch Fernsehsendungen, die die Warnungen davor als Humbug abtun. Mehr Aufmerksamkeit bekommt Lipoprotein(a). – Sparen bei der Früherkennung? »Genau das ist das, was wir nicht tun dürfen«, sagt Stach. Das GKV-Beitragssatzstabilisierungsgesetz empfindet sie als Rückschritt – kein gutes Signal, denn frühzeitige Prävention spare später Milliarden Euro. – Kinderscreening ab 6 Jahren: In den Gesprächen zum Gesundes-Herz-Gesetz war man mit der Politik nach ihren Worten schon weit. Ein solches Screening findet genetisch bedingte Fettstoffwechselstörungen früh und schützt zugleich das Kind und einen Elternteil. – Prävention ab der Kita: Kinder sollen früh lernen, was ein gesunder Lebensstil ist und welche Werte wichtig sind. In den Niederlanden entsteht so Gesundheitsbewusstsein von klein auf. Und der 60-jährige Hochrisikopatient? »Nein, um Gottes willen, da ist noch gar nichts verloren.« LDL-Senkung, Blutdruckeinstellung, Lebensstil und Reha helfen auch nach einem Herzinfarkt oder Schlaganfall. – Was die elektronische Patientenakte ePA leisten könnte: Befunde sind dort abrufbar. Es fehlen eine Abfrage zur Familienanamnese, die bei Risiko zum Check-up 35 einlädt, und die Messwerte aus Apotheken samt Hinweis, sich ärztlich abklären zu lassen. Die Schnittstellen funktionieren noch nicht gut. Ksenija Stach: »Wir müssen an einem Strang ziehen, Fakten auf den Tisch legen und nicht irgendwelche Märchen.« Stachs Vorschlag an Gesundheitsminister Carsten Linnemann: ein Kinderscreening ab 6 Jahren und Aufklärung über Risikofaktoren in Kitas, Schulen und Studiengängen. Ihr Rat an alle Hörerinnen und Hörer: die eigenen Werte kennen – Blutdruck, Langzeitblutzucker, LDL-Cholesterin und Lipoprotein(a). Wer sie nicht kennt, lässt sie bei nächster Gelegenheit in der Hausarztpraxis messen.

A ketogenic diet can dramatically improve metabolic health while sending LDL-C through the roof. So what's actually happening? Dr. Josh Wageman and Dr. Laura Buchanan break down their new study, "Increased LDL-C reduction with ezetimibe in ketogenic diet-induced hypercholesterolemia." The results raise some fascinating questions. In 14 patients who developed very high LDL-C while following a ketogenic diet, ezetimibe cut median LDL-C from 254 to 127 mg/dL—a remarkable 53% reduction. Why was the response so much greater than what's typically seen with ezetimibe? Could altered cholesterol absorption help explain why some people experience dramatic LDL increases on keto? Josh Wageman, Matt Calkins, and Laura Buchanan take us inside the study, explore the biology behind the findings, discuss what the results can—and cannot—tell us about cardiovascular risk, and explain why much more research is needed. If you've ever wondered why LDL can rise so dramatically on a ketogenic diet—and what might be driving it—this is a conversation you won't want to miss. In this episode, Dr. Tro, Dr. Buchanan, Dr. Calkins, and Dr. Wageman talk about… (00:00) Intro (05:07) Statins, lipids, and ezetimibe (08:44) Insulin resistance, the liver, and the ketogenic diet (15:01) The results from Drs.

Il y a treize ans, Mathieu et Violaine avaient une vie parisienne en apparence toute tracée : lui dans la musique de pub, elle chez Orange, un appartement à Pantin, une routine métro-boulot-dodo. Et puis un jour, une lettre des impôts a suffi à tout faire basculer. Le couple, ensemble depuis un an à peine, décide de tout vendre et de partir s'installer à Bali, sans savoir où ils allaient vivre, ni de quoi.Leur idée ? Ouvrir la première boutique de choux à la crème de l'île. Sans formation en pâtisserie, sans réseau, sans plan B. Six mois de tests dans une cuisine à ciel ouvert infestée de moustiques, un an et demi de galères administratives. Et puis coup de théâtre, leurs choux à la crème deviennent le dessert que tout Bali s'arrache, des corners dans les supermarchés jusqu'aux plus grands restaurants de l'île.Dans cet épisode, Mathieu raconte sans filtre l'envers du rêve d'expatriation : les débuts terrifiants à l'aéroport, l'annonce à des parents persuadés qu'ils étaient devenus fous, la naissance de leurs deux enfants entre Denpasar et la France, et ce choc culturel permanent qui, treize ans plus tard, continue de tout remettre en question, sur l'éducation, le rapport au temps, à la famille, à ce qui compte vraiment.Une conversation sincère sur ce que "tout plaquer" veut vraiment dire : pas la version Instagram de l'île paradisiaque, mais des journées de douze heures, une vie où l'on travaille plus qu'en France, et la certitude, malgré tout, d'avoir fait le bon choix.--------Un podcast produit et réalisé par Sakti Productions & Beau Voyage

On the Evolving Wellness podcast, host Sarah interviews returning guest Dr. Anthony Jay (PhD biochemistry; former Mayo Clinic researcher) about his book Sugar Beat: How Sugar, Not Cholesterol, Destroys Arteries and his broader critique of mainstream cardiology. Jay cites a 28,000-person study where insulin resistance had the highest heart-attack hazard ratio (6.4) versus hypertension (2.2), triglycerides (2.1), and LDL (1.38), arguing doctors overemphasize cholesterol while neglecting insulin and HOMA-IR. He claims statins increase arterial calcification and diabetes risk, criticizes organizations like the American Heart Association, and disputes fears around LDL, ApoB, and Lp(a), describing them as fat-transport/oxidation-related. Jay recommends focusing on metabolic health, diet and fasting to promote fat burning and plaque reversal, cautions about processed foods and mislabeled oils, discusses CAC vs CCTA imaging variability, and notes genetic nuances such as iron-related risk and sitosterolemia.— Connect with Dr. Anthony Jaywebsite - https://www.ajconsultingcompany.com/YT - https://www.youtube.com/@dranthonyjay Books:Sugar Beat - https://amzlink.to/az0hIdy8AMV03Estrogeneration:  https://amzlink.to/az0U0rLUAUr8f _________Sponsored By:→ Bon Charge | Go to https://boncharge.com/products/demi-red-light-device?rfsn=8108115.26608d & use code SARAHKLEINER for 15% off storewide._________Timestamp:00:00 Insulin Resistance vs LDL01:05 Meet Dr Anthony Jay04:03 Censorship and Free Speech10:14 Seed Oils and Food Fraud14:04 Statins and Calcified Plaque21:53 Sugar Beat Heart Disease Mechanism30:59 Saturated Fat Genes and Lp a40:52 Sleep Stress Insulin Link42:14 Metabolic Flexibility Basics42:55 Genetic High Cholesterol Cases43:40 Oreo Study LDL Trap45:45 Statins Guidelines Corruption51:02 CAC vs CCTA Scans57:04 Labs Genes Wrap Up——— This video is not medical advice & as a supporter to you and your health journey - I encourage you to monitor your labs and work with a professional!________________________________________Get all my free guides and product recommendations to get started on your journey!https://www.sarahkleinerwellness.com/all-free-resourcesCheck out all my courses to understand how to improve your mitochondrial health & experience long lasting health!

Does lower cholesterol equal less plaque? The answer may surprise you. On this episode of Vitality Radio, Jared explores emerging research on nattokinase, a systemic enzyme derived from fermented soybeans, and its potential role in supporting cardiovascular health. He reviews a 2017 clinical trial comparing nattokinase with a commonly prescribed statin, discusses why imaging studies of arterial plaque may offer a different perspective than cholesterol markers alone, and explains how fibrin may influence plaque structure. Jared also breaks down the importance of dosage, why many studies suggest higher amounts may produce different results than standard servings, and how systemic enzymes fit into a broader heart health strategy. As always, he encourages listeners to understand the research, ask better questions, and work with qualified healthcare professionals when making decisions about their cardiovascular health.Products:NattokinaseFibrenza Systemic EnzymesSun Nutrition Vascular Defense Systemic Enzyme & N.O.

Dr. Daniel Chong has spent years helping patients understand their true cardiovascular risk and take meaningful action to prevent heart attacks and strokes.In this episode, Rip and Dr. Chong dig into the confusing, often polarizing world of cholesterol and heart disease. Is LDL cholesterol really important? How low should it go? Is ApoB a better marker? What about calcium scores, lipoprotein(a), statins, saturated fat, and the growing noise around keto and carnivore diets?Dr. Chong offers a grounded, practical, and highly nuanced perspective. He explains why standard LDL cholesterol is only part of the picture, why ApoB and LDL particle number may provide a clearer view of risk, and why cardiovascular disease is never about one single factor. Instead, it is about the full internal environment: inflammation, endothelial function, blood flow, plaque stability, lifestyle, and diet.Rip and Dr. Chong also explore the limits of coronary artery calcium scores, the risks of relying on a “zero” score too early in life, and why soft plaque can still pose a serious threat even when calcified plaque is not detected.They also discuss saturated fat, heme iron, blood viscosity, hydration, testosterone therapy's potential effect on red blood cell count, and the fascinating protective layer inside our blood vessels known as the glycocalyx.This conversation is a reminder that cardiovascular prevention is about building a body that supports vitality from the inside out.You'll Learn:LDL cholesterol matters, but ApoB and LDL particle number may offer a more precise picture of cardiovascular risk.The longer LDL particles remain elevated, the greater the potential risk over time.Saturated fat can interfere with the body's ability to clear LDL particles from the bloodstream.Coronary artery calcium scores can be useful, but they do not detect soft, non-calcified plaque.A calcium score of zero does not always mean “clean arteries,” especially in younger people.Lipoprotein(a), or Lp(a), is an important marker to test at least once.Dr. Chong recommends looking at a broader cardiovascular panel, including lipids, ApoB, Lp(a), A1C, and hs-CRP.Heme iron from red meat is absorbed differently than non-heme iron from plants and may contribute to oxidative stress when elevated.Blood viscosity — or how “thick” your blood is — can influence endothelial function and plaque formation.Hydration, plant foods, and, in some cases, blood donation may help support healthier blood viscosity.The glycocalyx is a delicate, hair-like protective layer that supports endothelial function.A whole food, plant-based lifestyle remains one of the most powerful foundations for vascular health.Learn More About our 2026 Live PLANTSTRONG Events: https://plantstrongevents.com/ Let Us Help Your PLANTSTRONG JourneyLearn More About Our Corporate Wellness Program: https://liveplantstrong.com/corporate-wellness/ COMPLEMENT: Use code PLANTSTRONG for 30% off at https://lovecomplement.com/pages/plantstrong-special-offer Follow PLANTSTRONG and Rip Esselstynhttps://plantstrong.com/ https://www.facebook.com/GoPlantstrong https://www.instagram.com/goplantstrong/https://www.instagram.com/ripesselstyn/ Follow the PLANTSTRONG Podcast and Give the Show a 5-star RatingApple PodcastsSpotifyWatch on YouTubeEpisode Webpage

Dan talks about how he worked with a cat photographer to go to Bodegas across all 5 boroughs to take pictures and write down the stories of the cats who live there. Kelly asks Dan about some of the stories in the book, and Dan tells him the tale of Zorro and how he earned his name! Kelly and Dan then talk about how Dan started the movement to legalize bodega cats. Dan talks about his initial petition, and the phone call that he received that ended it. Dan talks about the undertaking of changing New York State and City Law. He goes into detail about what the law says, how it's harmful for Bodega Cats, and what his proposal hopes to change.  Finally, Kelly asks Dan about his upcoming projects, and Dan tells Kelly about a secret project that has not been announced yet, but he asks for Kelly's help with it on the Podcast!

Can you spend over $100,000 a year on your health and still get worse? That's exactly what happened to a patient of Dr. Robert Todd Hurst, board-certified preventive cardiologist and founder of HealthspanMD. In his 60s, elite fitness, 16% body fat, 100th percentile muscle mass, an A1C of 5.0 by every visible measure, this man was doing everything right. But a repeat CT angiogram with plaque composition analysis told a different story: his soft plaque volume increased from 259 to 290 cubic millimeters in a single year. The dangerous, reversible kind of plaque was growing. In this mini Healthspan Podcast episode, Dr. Hurst breaks down why even the most expensive, cutting-edge care can fail… no genetic testing to uncover root causes, no adjustments based on feedback, and a regimen built on the latest treatments instead of the proven foundations that actually stop and reverse artery disease. Heart disease reversal isn't about spending more. It's about knowing your root causes, personalizing your plan, and adjusting based on real data. If you've been diagnosed with heart disease, have a high calcium score, or want to know whether your current plan is actually working, this one is worth your time. About the Guest Dr. Robert Todd Hurst, MD, FACC, FASE, is a board-certified preventive cardiologist, former Mayo Clinic physician, and founder of HealthspanMD. His mission is simple: no one should die of a heart attack, ever. Through a proactive, precision-medicine approach, he helps patients identify hidden risks, address root causes, and prevent or reverse heart disease while extending healthspan and quality of life.

Did you know the very medication doctors push to "protect" your heart could be wrecking your brain, hormones, and mood? I've watched statins destroy lives, including my father's, and it's time to address the issues with the meds. I am joined by chiropractor Joel Boheimer, founder of the supplement line Regenerate, to break down why nattokinase is gaining popularity for heart health. Joel walks us through the research behind this fibrin-dissolving enzyme. He explains why cholesterol isn't the villain we've been told it is, and how the wrong form of calcium affects your arteries and joints. We also get into vitamin K2, ellagic acid, and why regenerative, whole-food sourcing changes everything about how a supplement performs in your body.  If you're worried about your heart or just tired of being handed a prescription instead of an explanation, this conversation will change how you think about your next cardiologist visit.   "Research shows that higher levels of cholesterol are protective to longevity, heart attack, strokes, and cancers." ~  Dr. Joel Bohemier   In This Episode: - What is nattokinase, and what are its benefits? - Why statins are dangerous - Statins linked to rise in dementia - Nattokinase use after 2020 jabs  - Regenerate's farming philosophy - The research behind Regenerate's supplements - An overview of CardioNK's ingredients  - Vitamin K2 and calcium placement  - Ellagic acid and urolithins - Bacillus subtilis and gut health benefits - Where to get CardioNK and recommended dosage   Products & Resources Mentioned: Regenerate's CardioNK: Get it at a special discount at: https://regeneratecompany.com/pages/myers?uid=2&oid=2&affid=9  Bon Charge Red Light Face Mask: Get 15% off sitewide, plus free shipping and a 12-month warranty, with code WENDY at https://boncharge.com/     Tru Energy Skincare Bio Adaptive Hydration Oil: Try the oil and save up to $197 at trytruenergy.com/wendy5 Organifi Collagen: Save 20% with code MYERSDETOX at https://organifi.com/myersdetox  Heavy Metals Quiz: Take the quiz at https://heavymetalsquiz.com    About Dr. Joel Bohemier: Dr. Joel Bohemier is a second-generation chiropractor and founder of Regenerate, a supplement company built on a simple idea: the health of people and the health of the planet are connected.

Can you really reverse heart artery disease? In this episode, Dr. Robert Todd Hurst, MD, FACC, FASE, shares the remarkable story of a HealthspanMD member who thought he was doing everything right. Despite taking a statin, maintaining healthy blood pressure, staying active, and keeping his blood sugar under control, advanced imaging revealed he was still accumulating dangerous soft plaque in his coronary arteries. Dr. Hurst explains how plaque composition analysis works, why traditional cholesterol targets may not be enough for some people, and what happened when they implemented a more personalized strategy focused on achieving exceptional cardiovascular results. Today's guest is a HealthspanMD member with a strong family history of heart disease who was committed to protecting his heart health. After advanced CT angiography revealed significant soft plaque progression despite years of following conventional recommendations, he partnered with Dr. Robert Todd Hurst, MD, FACC, FASE, and the HealthspanMD team to take a more proactive, personalized approach. One year later, his results demonstrated what may be possible when root causes are identified and risk factors are optimized.

In this week's episode of Parallax, Dr Ankur Kalra is joined by Dr Chris Maroules, National Director for Cardiac Imaging at SimonMed and co-director of Innovation Health. Together, they explore why coronary CTA, now a Class 1 recommendation in the 2021 ACC/AHA chest pain guidelines, has become the standard first-line non-invasive test, and why proficiency in cardiac CT is essential for cardiology trainees in 2026. The conversation shifts from traditional risk scores to direct disease assessment, highlighting the power of coronary CTA to identify and quantify plaque burden. Dr Maroules discusses high-risk plaque features, the limitations of calcium scoring, and the evolving role of FFRCT, before outlining a future of AI-enabled screening and precision prevention. He concludes with practical advice for fellows, encouraging Level 2 certification to stay ahead in an increasingly imaging-driven field. Questions and comments can be sent to "podcast@radcliffe-group.com" and may be answered by Ankur in the next episode.

Get a TRUE measure and understanding of your risk for heart disease. Then crush it. Reverse vascular plaque. Status quo is not good enough

Aujourd'hui, Flora Ghebali, entrepreneure dans la transition écologique, Emmanuel de Villiers, chef d'entreprise, et Zohra Bitan, fonctionnaire, débattent de l'actualité autour d'Alain Marschall et Olivier Truchot.

Human brain tissue contains far higher concentrations of microplastics than liver or kidney tissue, and researchers found the burden increased sharply between 2016 and 2024 Researchers discovered that patients with microplastics embedded inside carotid artery plaque faced a 4.53-fold higher risk of heart attack, stroke, or death compared to patients without detectable plastics in plaque Studies found plastic particles inside blood clots and diseased artery walls, while animal experiments showed nanosized plastics disrupting blood flow and worsening brain injury after stroke Ultraprocessed foods, bottled beverages, plastic packaging, contaminated water, and airborne particles expose your body to microplastics daily, allowing the burden to build gradually inside tissues and blood vessels Reducing ultraprocessed foods, avoiding heated plastic containers, filtering drinking water, and improving metabolic and vascular health help lower ongoing exposure and support your body's defenses against chronic inflammatory damage

In this episode, Dr. Jockers breaks down the "one meal" strategy designed to support arterial health and help reduce plaque buildup through targeted nutrition. You'll learn how arterial plaque is actually scar tissue formed from inflammation and damage inside the blood vessels. And how this meal approach is designed to support blood pressure and cardiovascular function.   You'll discover why omega-3 rich foods like wild-caught salmon and pasture-raised eggs play a key role in reducing inflammation and supporting endothelial repair. You'll also hear how arugula, olive oil, tomatoes, cucumbers, and citrus work together to boost nitric oxide production and improve blood flow. And how these foods collectively help calm oxidative stress in the arteries.   You'll also learn how a simple dessert of Greek yogurt or coconut yogurt with collagen peptides, berries, and pomegranate supports blood sugar stability and vascular healing. You'll understand why compounds like anthocyanins and ellagic acid are important for reducing oxidative damage. And how this full meal framework supports long-term cardiovascular resilience and energy.   In This Episode:  00:00 Nitric Oxide Teaser 00:14 Episode Intro and Promise 00:35 Reviews and Coaching Plug 03:53 Why Plaque Matters 05:41 Omega 3 Protein Base 07:33 Eggs and Cholesterol Myth 11:24 Arugula Salad Blueprint 13:55 Dessert Yogurt Collagen 15:04 Berries and Pomegranate Boost 16:44 Wrap Up and Next Steps   Discover clinically inspired, clean skincare trusted by over 60,000 women and featured in outlets like Elle and Cosmopolitan.

A newly published study called NATURE-CT is generating significant attention in the cardiovascular and ketogenic communities, but some of the conclusions being drawn online don't hold up to scientific scrutiny. Dr. Bret Scher walks through what the study actually shows, what it doesn't, and why comparisons being made to ketogenic therapy are scientifically misleading.In this discussion, you'll learn:What the NATURE-CT study examined and what its findings mean for coronary plaque progressionWhy the average LDL of 111 mg/dL still showed substantial plaque progressionWhat this data may suggest about looking beyond LDL as the sole driver of coronary diseaseWhy comparisons being made between NATURE-CT and KETO-CTA are scientifically flawedWhy the original KETO-CTA manuscript was retracted and what that means for current claimsHow baseline coronary artery calcium scores influence valid scientific comparisonsWhy findings in lean mass hyper-responders cannot be extrapolated to all forms of ketogenic therapyHow metabolic health, not just LDL, may be a critical factor in understanding cardiovascular riskThis conversation underscores the importance of evaluating studies on their actual design and findings, rather than the conclusions being layered on top of them. For clinicians, researchers, and anyone navigating the cardiovascular and ketogenic conversation, the precision of the science matters.

The person often felt completely fine. And then a life-changing event. It's not a slow clog. It's a rupture. Soft, inflamed plaque buried in the artery wall ruptures, platelets rush in, a clot forms in seconds, and that clot is what actually triggers the heart attack. The real villains are inflammation, unstable plaque, and clotting. Not your cholesterol number. That's also why the aspirin debate got so confusing. Aspirin works by making platelets less sticky, blunting that first step of clot formation. For someone with documented plaque or a previous heart attack or stroke, the evidence is strong: aspirin cuts the risk of a second event by around 19 to 20%. But for someone at genuinely low cardiovascular risk who has never had an event, the bleeding risk may quietly outweigh any benefit. Same pill, different person, opposite outcome. The key test most people have never gotten: your coronary calcium score. In this episode, I share exactly what I would do the day I found plaque in my arteries, including seven metabolic steps that address the root cause instead of just managing the risk. Key Takeaways: 70% of heart attacks happen in arteries less than 50% blocked. It's a rupture and clot, not a slow clog. Aspirin helps people at high cardiovascular risk (secondary prevention), but may do more harm than good for low-risk individuals Your coronary calcium score is the most important test most people have never taken Chronically high insulin is, according to heart surgeon Dr. Philip Ovadia (5,000+ open heart surgeries), the number one contributor to artery damage The PREDIMED trial found extra virgin olive oil was tied to a 30% lower risk of major cardiovascular events Aspirin manages the consequence of plaque.

Pathophysiology/etiology Carotid artery disease is primarily driven by atherosclerotic plaque deposition.  Risk factors: hypertension, hyperlipidemia, diabetes, smoking, and advanced age. Nonatherosclerotic etiologies: fibromuscular dysplasia, carotid dissection, vasculitic disease, carotid webs, and trauma. When the endothelium is damaged, monocytes migrate to the site and differentiate into macrophages that take up oxidized LDL particles to become foam cells. Meanwhile, an inflammatory response occurs where activated platelets release thromboxane A2, platelet derived growth factor, and inflammatory cytokines that promote further platelet aggregation and vascular inflammation. Smooth muscle cells migrate and proliferate, forming the structural framework of the atheroma.  Within the lesion, necrotic debris and lipid accumulate, creating a vulnerable plaque. Plaque rupture exposes this material to the bloodstream, serving as a nidus for thrombus formation which can lead to ischemic events. Carotid bifurcation is particularly prone to plaque formation due to turbulent blood flow. Embolization of plaque from this area can result in TIA or ischemic stroke.  2. Presentation Patients are often asymptomatic and stenosis is incidentally found on imaging.  Symptomatic patients present with neurologic symptoms including unilateral motor and sensory loss, aphasia (difficulty finding words), dysarthria (difficulty speaking), amaurosis fugax (temporary monocular vision loss due to embolus to the ophthalmic artery), transient ischemic attacks Physical exam findings may be notable for auscultation of a carotid bruit. Patients may also have evidence of retinal artery embolization on fundoscopic examination (Hollenhorst plaque) or asymptomatic cerebral infarction.  3. Diagnosis USPTF recommends against screening for asymptomatic carotid artery stenosis.  In patients with no risk factors, SVS recommends against screening for asymptomatic carotid artery stenosis. However, they do recommend screening for asymptomatic clinically significant carotid bifurcation in certain groups of patients with multiple risk factors.  These risk factors include patients with clinically significant peripheral vascular disease, patients 65 and older with history of CAD, smoking, hypercholesterolemia, and patients prior to coronary artery bypass.  Relevant findings on physical exam or imaging findings may warrant screening, but screening is not recommended for the presence of neck bruit alone without other risk factors, as this finding has a low sensitivity and specificity for detecting clinically significant carotid artery stenosis.  Carotid duplex ultrasound: first-line imaging modality for both screening and initial evaluation of stenosis, noninvasive, low-cost CTA: rapid, high-resolution, three-dimensional imaging of vascular anatomy, risk of contrast and radiation exposure MRA: high-quality, three-dimensional imaging without radiation or contrast, expensive with longer acquisition time, can overestimate stenosis in severe disease DSA/angiography: gold standard, expensive, invasive, not generally recommended for routine diagnostic evaluation or screening 4. Classification Carotid artery stenosis is classified by degree of luminal narrowing. NASCET method: standard in current practice. Compares the minimal residual lumen at the point of greatest stenosis to the diameter of the normal distal internal carotid artery.  Classification of stenosis: Mild: 70 bpm, and ACT >250 seconds to optimize cerebral perfusion and minimize thrombotic risk. Clamp the carotid artery just proximal to the arterial sheath to establish active flow reversal.  Flow controller settings: Low setting High setting Flow-stop button: allows for temporary cessation of flow (used when we inject contrast).  Confirm flow reversal via two different ways:  The first way is to stop flow to the venous return sheath with the stopcock, clearing the line with hep saline injection, and then opening the stopcock and seeing the blood returning to the controller in a reverse fashion. The second way is to perform an angiogram with a small amount of contrast injection while holding the flow-stop button. Using the angio we want to make sure that contrast is flowing retrograde in the cervical ICA thereby confirming flow reversal.    Carotid artery stenting, balloon angioplasty, and completion angiogram At this point, a standard carotid angioplasty and stenting procedure is performed. ENROUTE transcarotid Neuroprotection System device:  inner diameter of 8F and an outer diameter of 10F Has its own carotid artery stent system but is also compatible with all FDA-approved carotid stents.  Final angiogram is performed to confirm stent position, vessel patency, and absence of complications including vasospasm at the distal end of the stent and filling defects from protrusion of atheromatous material through the stent    Cessation of flow reversal and sheath removal Allow the flow reversal to run for a few minutes after the final balloon angioplasty to clear any debris.  Antegrade flow is restored by releasing the carotid clamp and closing the stopcocks on the neuroprotection system.  The patient is auto-transfused the blood from the flow line back to the venous system.  As the arterial access system is removed and the puncture site is closed with the U-stitch.  IV protamine is administered to reverse the heparin. Standard closure is performed at the incision site. Meanwhile, hemostasis is achieved after removal of the femoral vein sheath with brief manual compression.  Postop care/complications Postop care All patients after a TCAR should be monitored in the ICU setting for 24 hours, as an embolic stroke, hypotension with or without bradycardia, or hypertension can occur.  Should a TIA or stroke be observed, a carotid duplex scan and CT angiogram should be immediately obtained to assess the stent site and the presence of an embolic or thrombotic filling defect, dissection, or occlusion.  Dual antiplatelet therapy: continue for 45 days to 12 months Aspirin and statin therapy: continued indefinitely Surveillance duplex imaging: 4 weeks, 6 months, and 12 months, and annually thereafter. Postop complications Hematoma Stroke Myocardial infarction Cerebral hyperperfusion syndrome Sudden and excessive increase in cerebral blood flow to previously hypoperfused brain tissue is met with vasculature that cannot constrict appropriately from chronic vasodilation Leads to breakthrough hyperperfusion. This results in cerebral edema, intracerebral hemorrhage, and neurological symptoms.  Cranial nerve injury Hypoglossal nerve (CN XII) injury: ipsilateral tongue deviation. It is the most commonly injured cranial nerve.  Vagus nerve (CN X) injury: hoarseness and possible vocal cord paralysis.  Glossopharyngeal nerve (CN IX) injury: soft palate dysfunction.  Recurrent laryngeal nerve injury: voice hoarseness and inability to cough as it innervates all of the voice box muscles except for the cricothyroid muscle Marginal mandibular nerve injury: ipsilateral lip droop, injury is rare in TCAR.  Stent restenosis Pseudoaneurysm Access site infection

In this episode of Parallax, Dr Ankur Kalra is joined by Professor Ron Blankstein, a leading authority in preventive cardiology and cardiac imaging at Harvard Medical School and Brigham and Women's Hospital, Boston. Together they trace the remarkable journey of cardiac computed tomography (CT) from a niche diagnostic test to an indispensable pillar of contemporary cardiovascular practice. Professor Blankstein shares the moving story behind his new textbook, a companion to the legendary Braunwald's Heart Disease, recounting his personal collaboration with the late Dr Eugene Braunwald, who initiated the project and remained meticulously involved in its development until his passing. How has cardiac CT reshaped the diagnosis and management of coronary disease? What does the future of plaque analysis and photon-counting technology hold? And why should every cardiology fellow now consider CT essential to their training? Questions and comments can be sent to "podcast@radcliffe-group.com" and may be answered by Ankur in the next episode.
