“…The overall strength of our linear relationship between temperature and BP was very similar to previous studies 5 , 12 . However, when we examined the association in each city, we found that Miami had a significantly higher association between BP and temperature than all other cities in our study.…”

“…The Kailuan cohort study, which studied 47 000 Chinese participants, found that both HR and BP had a nonlinear relationship with 3-day moving averages of daily mean temperature 6 . Another study, looking at over 100 000 Dutch participants, found a significant nonlinear association between the mean daily temperature and BP 5 . Unlike these previous studies, ours saw a linear relationship with systolic BP and no relationship with HR.…”

“…Previous studies have found a seasonal fluctuation in BP with higher measurements typically found in the winter and lower measurements in the summer 4 . However, few studies have examined the association of short-term fluctuations in temperature with BP 5 , 6 and HR 6 and none have compared the association in geographically and climatologically diverse locations.…”

This study aims to evaluate the relationship between mean outdoor temperature and mean daily blood pressure (BP) and heart rate (HR) among six, large, geographically and climatically diverse US cities. We collected BP and HR data from Higi stations, located in a wide range of neighborhood grocery stores and retail pharmacies, from six US cities (Houston, Los Angeles, Miami, Boise, Chicago, and New York City). Outdoor daily temperature data were collected from the National Centers for Environmental Information’s database. Pearson’s correlation was used to assess the linear relationship between mean daily outdoor temperature and mean daily BP and HR for each city from May 2016 through April 2017. A total of 2 140 626 BP and HR readings were recorded in the six study cities. Mean outdoor temperature was inversely correlated with both mean daily average systolic (r=−0.69, P<0.0001) and diastolic (r=−0.71; P<0.0001) BPs, but not HR (r<0.0001, P=0.48). We also found that temperature change had a larger impact on BP in equatorial climates such as Miami compared with colder and more temperature variable cities like Chicago and Boise. Previous studies have found that BP varies seasonally, but few have looked at the impact of daily temperature on both BP and HR changes. Our study is one of the largest and most climatically diverse populations ever looking at this relationship. Our results suggest that temperature, and perhaps geography, should play a role in tailoring individualized evaluation and treatment for hypertensive diseases.

“…15,16 Most studies have observed a significant inverse association between ambient temperature and BP. [17][18][19][20] The association, however, is not similar in magnitude across studies due to differences in the studies' samples. One study looking at normotensive women aged 18 to 40 years in Delhi, India, indicated that the mean SBP and DBP in winter was 11.07mmHg and 6.79mmHg higher than in summer, respectively.…”

“…Однако для формирования лечебно-реабилитационных эффектов большое значение имеют изменения погоды на курорте в процессе МР [5,6]. Установлено влияние ведущих метеорологических параметров на функциональное состояние больных ИБС, когда жаркие погоды и выраженная динамика атмосферного давления повышали риск обострения заболевания [5][6][7][8][9][10]. В то же время, эффективность МР больных ИБС на курорте ЮБК еще не была исследована с точки зрения оценки влияния погодных факторов.…”

The aim of this work is to assess the influence of the climatic and weather characteristics of the South Coast of Crimea (SCC) on the effectiveness of health resort medical rehabilitation (MR) of patients with ischemic heart disease (IHD).Materials and methods. A study was carried out in a group of 276 patients with IHD. The influence of climatic and weather characteristics of the SCC were assessed using the methods developed by the «ARI n.a. I.M. Sechenov» - modified clinical index on weather pathogenicity (CIPP-M) and MR assessment according to the criteria of the» International classification of functioning, disabilities and health» (ICF).Results. Regression equations for the dynamics of the ICF b2401, b280, b4301 and b440 domains on the values of air temperature (AT-M), atmospheric pressure variability (APV), air temperature variability (ATV-M) wind speed (WS-M) and total CIPP-M have been developed, which allow to reliably form a rehabilitation prognosis for patients with IHD for all terms of health resort treatment in the SCC.Conclusions. The use of modernized clinical indices of weather pathogenicity allows one to adequately assess and predict the effect of weather dynamics and form a rehabilitation prognosis for patients with IHD.
