Yi. Gurfinkel et al., ESTIMATION OF THE INFLUENCE OF GEOMAGNETIC STORMS ON FREQUENCY OF APPEARANCE OF ACUTE CORONARY PATHOLOGY, Biofizika, 43(4), 1998, pp. 654-658
The massif of data about acute coronary pathology and deaths of Centra
l Railway Hospital (Moscow) is analysed during 1992-1993. The geomagne
tic storms are characterised by their intensity and duration. The quan
titative values of biotropic of the geomagnetic storms are given to di
fferent diseases. It is shown that: during geomagnetic storms the numb
er of cases of myocardial infraction increase to 2.5 times, the acute
cerebral insult to 2 times, the angina pectoris and cardiac arrhythmia
to 1.5 times and deaths to 1.2 times in regarding to the periods with
out the geomagnetic storms.
