Geomagnetic disturbances as factor of cardiovascular risk in the Far North
Abstract
The influence of frequency of an ischemic (coronary) heart disease (ICD) was analyzed. The frequency of heart ischemic attacks and insults had been compared with a level of geomagnetic activity in Yakutsk - the Far North in Russia. Founded data confirmed influence of geomagnetic indignation and geomagnetic storms: In the periods without geomagnetic indignation (186,3 days) in year (Yakutsk), number of heart ischemic attacks (2.9 times) and brain insults (3,29 time) are less than in the days of geomagnetic storms. This data has interest for the experts of the Far North, who plan of prevent actions against to heart and brain ischemic mortality.
