[Correlation between acute cerebral circulatory disorders and changes in the earth's magnetic field].
An analysis of 4023 cases of acute cerebral circulatory impairments (ACCI) recorded in the cities of the Central Russia plateau (Kursk, Belgorod, Orel, Zheleznogorsk) has shown that there is an increase in the incidence of ACCI both upon the onset and the cessation of magnetic storms. An elevated rate of ACCI was observed both at high and low levels of the regional magnetic field tension. Therefore, the authors suggest that while making a regression-correlation analysis by the gradient of the Earth's magnetic field--differential regional K-index, the sign of tension alterations should be left out of account. This makes it possible to elucidate the linear dependence between the ACCI incidence and the differential K-index. Results of analysis are proposed to be used in multivariate statistical investigations with the purpose of medical weather forecasting and the prevention of cardiovascular disease complications.
