[Sex ratio in the spectrum of chronobiopathology].
With regard to the deficiency of representative data on the different course of the ischaemic heart disease depending upon sex a total statistics (death data) of the GDR for 5 years was elaborated and compared with the total mortality since 1903 to 1958 of the area of the former German Reich, the GDR and the FRG with still-born and deceased babies. Here conspicuous synchronous courses depending upon the season were the result. The female sex quite generally predominates the well-known course of the season of all individual mortality data, whereas the males are somewhat more endangered during the summer months. The differences established between the sexes proved in most cases as significant, in larger groups as highly significant. Moreover, the statistical reference guarantees an up to now not proven representativeness . The result of the distribution characteristics within the 10 categories examined renders possible cautious conclusions concerning the causal connection of the process.
