The aim of this study was to evaluate the associations among morbidity of acute myocardial infarction (AMI) and mortality from ischemic heart disease (IHD) with heliogeophysical factors among the Kaunas population. The study population was stratified into three age categories: 25-54, 55-64, and ≥65 years. In this study, solar flares (SF), solar proton fluences (SPF), and geomagnetic activity (GMA) were employed as heliogeophysical factors and used Poisson regression and two methods of time series modeling (lag and lead). Influence of GMA in different age and sex category is uneven. The mean number of AMI events per day was greatest (23 %) among men aged 25-54 years on the third day and the same sex aged 55-64 years-increased 10 % 2 days before when the GMA intensity was A+S. Both for men and women aged ≥65 years, the highest increase in the mean number of deaths from IHD events per day was observed on the second day when the GMA intensity was A+S-51 and 34 %, respectively. Evaluating the impact of SF of 10(-5) ≤ SF < 10(-4) W/m(2) (M+X) intensity, the mean number of AMI events per day was greatest for 55-64-year-old women and men on the same and second days. Such SF were associated with a 13 and 20 % increase, respectively. Evaluating the impact of large fluence SPF, it was determined that the increase in the mean number of AMI events per day among 25-54-year-old men was greatest (30 %) 1 day, and death from IHD (54 %) was observed among women aged ≥65 years 2 days before the energy of the SPF has increased.

Effect of Heliogeophysical and Atmospheric Factors on the Degree of Synchronization of Ultradian Rhythms of Body Temperature in Mice.
Bull Exp Biol Med

Institute of Higher Nervous Activity and Neurophysiology, Russian Academy of Sciences, Moscow, Russia.
In a long-term (8 months) study, we examined the degree of synchronization of ultradian body temperature oscillations of two isolated groups of mice kept under constant dim illumination. In most cases, the periods of increased activity accompanied by rapid elevation of body temperature coincided in these groups of mice, but in some days, no significant synchronization between the examined parameters was observed. Analysis of the effects of environmental factors on the degree of synchronization of ultradian rhythms in mice revealed association of this parameter with the dynamics of atmospheric pressure (AtmP) and to a lesser extent with the vertical component of interplanetary magnetic field Bz.

The study collated oscillations of body temperature of С57BL/6 mice and Roborovski hamsters (Phodopus roborovskii) in the period range of 100-240 min and fluctuations of the secondary cosmic rays reflected by neutron count rate of a neutron monitor at the Earth's surface. Cross-correlation of body temperature and neutron count rate data revealed their strong association only for simultaneous measurements. Collation of the phase of neutron count rate fluctuations with maxima of body temperature oscillations revealed the coincidence of the phases of both processes.

The dynamics of proliferative activity of the L-929 cell culture of mouse fibroblast-like cells in the phase of logarithmic growth was compared with some heliogeophysical parameters (Ap and ULF indexes of geomagnetic activity, vertical component of the interplanetary magnetic field, and intensity of fluctuations of secondary cosmic radiation estimated by the neutron monitoring near the Earth's surface). Among the considered heliogeophysical parameters, only the magnitude of fluctuations of minute-to-minute changes in the neutron monitor indicator reliably and negatively correlates with the rate of cell culture reproduction. Considering that the amplitude of secondary cosmic fluctuations is about 5%, which is 0.

Aim: Multiple sclerosis (MS) develops as a result of an interaction between genetic and environmental factors, among them solar (SA) and geomagnetic activity (GMA) attract the particular attention. An impact of SA and GMA on intrauterine and postnatal period in MS was studied.
Material And Methods: The study included 358 patients with MS.

We investigate the impacts of sharp variations in solar and geomagnetic activity (GMA) at high latitudes on the human brain bioelectrical activity by means of the empirical structure function of multi-channel EEG. Ten healthy men ages 19 to 37 took part in the study. EEG was recor- ded daily over the 25 days test period that was marked by C- and M-class solar flares and geomagnetic storm levels in the G2-G3 range.
