title: [Climate conditions and ambient air quality as risk factors for mortality in Moscow].
abstract: Analysis of time rows (daily values of mortality, temperature and pollution of ambient air) proved that present climate warming in Moscow, more subnormally hot and cold days influences level of mortality with all causes except external - with cardiovascular diseases (IHD, angina pectoris, cerebrovascular diseases including cerebrovascular accidents), chronic diseases of lower respiratory tract including bronchial asthma - especially in older age group. Heat waves are associated with significantly increased mortality. Zone of temperature comfort for Moscow, associated with minimal mortality values, is within -20 to +20 C interval.
