@DoctorTro @realDaveFeldman A major issue here is the fact that this wasn't adjusted for lipid lowering treatment (typically more often used in those who have already experienced a CVD event or have been at high risk) and their "high" LDL group was 123mg/dL compared to just over 100 in the "low" group 🤔

@Tom_Babington1 Hiya Tom, I'll tell the organisers that the link isn't working and hopefully get it up and running ASAP. BTW this is very much a lay discussion of my research, for the public, so I don't think you'll be learning anything new at all 😅
