Summary

This study planned to test whether a 14-day ketogenic diet before heart bypass surgery could reduce confusion and memory loss in adults aged 60 and older. The diet was thought to lower brain inflammation and improve brain cell health. However, the study was withdrawn before any participants were enrolled, so no results are available.
