From Reddit:
"1) It's a non-peer-reviewed conference abstract.
2) It's a single author. That's weird, and rare, considering a single person certainly didn't do all the work this abstract describes themselves
3) The single author is Steven Gundry, a "functional" medicine quack renowned for promoting lectin-avoidance diets as cure-alls.
4) It's absolutely impossible to ascertain the methods here.
Because the abstract is terribly written, it's almost impossible to work out what they're actually trying to report
I'm not a cardiologist, but from what I can tell and my general impression the PULS test is not a validated biomarker. The website gives no publications. The papers referenced in the FAQ are small and terribly cited. The test is marketed by numerous natural health websites. "
