prevent score of 20% or above

83
New cards

stage 4 CKM

clincal CVD

what does COR mean

how much evidence supports the guideline

  • ex 2a is good, but not as strongly supported as 1a


85
New cards

what does LOE or level of evidence

the NEXT a means randomized controlled trial

86
New cards

what is bmi “cut off” for glp-1 meds

BMI of 27 (with comorbiditiies— stage 1-3 CKM— which can lit just be overweight or prediabetes)

87
New cards

are low or high glycemic index foods pref

low glycemic— small spike in BG over time— “sustained release”

88
New cards

is whole-foods or micronutrients approach better

per T Colin Campbell there are more holistic benefits with whole foods (durp)

89
New cards

what are rec for stage 4 (HF, stroke, ASCVD, Afib)

intensive behavioral thearpy

GLP-1 (if BMI over 27)

90
New cards

rec for stage 1-3 CKM

lifestyle fs

  • secondary is GLP-1 (b-nr level) if bmi over 27


91
New cards

when are GLP-1s cost effective

  • stage 4 CKM (pts with ASCVD)

  • bc naltrex/wellbbutrin and phentermine is damaging to heart

  • GLP-1s very good for heart

    • if GLP-1s dont work do surgery (if BMI over 30)


92
New cards

when is there harm (ranked level 3) for bupropion and phentermine

stage 4 CKM— stimulation and increase BP and heart rate

93
New cards

when is there no “just lifestyle” trial CKM wise

just stage 4

94
New cards

what is premise for low carb diet

carb restriction lowers insulin level, body burns stored fat for energy

95
New cards

which diet used for epilepsy

ketogenic (low carb)

96
New cards

what is the goal of ketogenic diet

put body in state of ketosis to switch from glucose to fat burning

97
New cards

example of low glycemic index

brown rice, oat, whole wheat, beans, chia seeds

98
New cards

what happens when body is in ketosis

  • elevated ketones in blood/urine

    • ketones produced by liver as emergency energy

      • causes body to start burning fat instead of using glucose


99
New cards

what are benefits of keto diet

reduce risk of seizure

  • short term wt loss, increased BG, decreased TG, and increased HDL


100
New cards

downsides of keto diet— short term
