Spontaneous coronary artery dissection (SCAD) is an uncommon condition which is increasingly recognized as a cause of significant morbidity. SCAD can cause acute coronary syndrome and myocardial infarction (MI), as well as sudden cardiac death. It presents similarly to atherosclerotic MI although typically in patients with few or no atherosclerotic risk factors, and particularly in women.

Cardiac amyloidosis is a serious disease in which abnormal proteins (amyloids) accumulate in the heart muscle and impair heart function. As the disease leads to serious complications such as heart insufficiency and, in many cases, death if left untreated, early diagnosis is essential in order to start treatment in good time.

When I read a news headline about science, I try to first apply Hanlon’s razor: not attributing to malice what can likely be explained by incompetence. This proves to be difficult almost daily, increasingly so in the age where clickbait sells. This week is no different. On Monday, several news outlets posted headlines regarding a new “study” with the alarmist claim that “8-hour time-restricted eating linked to a 91% higher risk of cardiovascular death.” As I write t
