Editorial and AI Transparency

At CuringHeartDisease.com, our mission is to provide clear, evidence-based educational content about cardiovascular health. We believe readers deserve to understand how our content is created and reviewed.

Our Editorial Process

Each article begins with a scientific question or topic selected by Peter Megdal, PhD.

To efficiently identify and organize relevant research, we use artificial intelligence (AI) tools to search, summarize, and synthesize information from peer-reviewed scientific literature. These tools help organize large volumes of research into a structured draft.

AI is used to assist with research organization, drafting, editing, narration, and media production. AI does not make editorial decisions or determine the conclusions presented on this website.

Every article is carefully reviewed, edited, and verified by Peter Megdal, PhD, before publication. During this review, scientific claims, interpretations, and references are checked for accuracy, clarity, and consistency with the underlying research. Peter is responsible for the final published content.

Our Sources

Whenever possible, our educational content is based on peer-reviewed scientific literature, established clinical guidelines, and other reputable scientific sources. References are provided to encourage readers to review the original research.

AI-Assisted Media

Some infographics, illustrations, videos, podcasts, and other media published on this website are created with the assistance of AI tools. When AI is used in producing media, the scientific content is reviewed by Peter Megdal, PhD, before publication.

Corrections

Science evolves, and so does medical knowledge. If new evidence becomes available or an error is identified, we may update our content to improve accuracy. When appropriate, articles will include the date they were last updated.

Educational Purpose
