Is it true that the spring switch to daylight saving time increases heart attack rates in the following days?

Yes. A systematic review and meta-analysis of seven epidemiological studies reports an increased risk of acute myocardial infarction following the spring daylight saving time transition, and a Swedish intensive care dataset shows an elevated incidence ratio of 1.039 for acute myocardial infarction in the first week after the spring clock shift.
