********CRITIQUES, RULES, AND NOTES********

Be aware of the following rules before posting comments:
- Please do not post summaries of the video in the comments - it damages retention on the video and YouTube is less likely to promote it (these videos cost me a lot of money to produce).

Critiques of my work are welcome! Please be aware of the following notes & rules before submitting critique:

Be mindful that this content is not all encompassing on the subject at hand and is self-limited for brevity to reach a wider audience. Also, be aware that I receive hundreds of YouTube comments per day, so the only way your critique can be considered is if you follow the steps outlined below. Finally, YouTube auto-deletes links, so I do not see most comments with links attached.

RULES:
If your comment is rude, you will be banned.
If your comment is not about the studies/topics at hand (i.e. extending to other outcomes not discussed) or offers critique with no scientific basis, it is unlikely to receive a response.

If you can follow these rules, I will try to address your critique and if there is merit, I will add an AMENDMENT to the content in question and pin it so everyone can see it (thank you!).

Mindsip insights from this episode:

Understand ABI score to assess plaque buildup risk

A score below 0.6 indicates a high likelihood of plaque buildup, while a score between 0.6 and 0.89 suggests a possibility of plaque.

#testing

Perform at-home arterial plaque test using Ankle-Brachial Index

The Ankle-Brachial Index (ABI) is a simple at-home test using a blood pressure cuff to find out if you have significant plaque in your arteries.

Understand ABI test limitations for accurate artery blockage detection

The ABI test has high specificity (98%) and sensitivity (90%), but this is only true for detecting artery blockages of 50% or greater.

#artery

#testing

Avoid test if diagnosed with DVT or severe leg pain

If you have been diagnosed with deep vein thrombosis (DVT) or have severe leg pain, you should skip performing this test.

#risk

#testing

Calculate your ABI score using ankle and arm blood pressure measurements

To calculate your ABI score, divide the highest systolic (top number) blood pressure from your ankle measurements by the highest systolic number from your arm measurements.

#blood-pressure

#testing

Rest and avoid stimulants for accurate test results

For an accurate reading, you must rest for five minutes before the test and avoid stimulants like caffeine.
