<p>Association Between Air Temperature and the Incidence of Acute Coronary Heart Disease in Northeast China</p>

Abstract: The aim of this study was to examine the association between air temperature and incidence of acute coronary heart disease in Northeast China. Methods: We obtained coronary heart disease (CHD) daily hospitalization data from January 2017 to June 2019, and collected meteorological data including average daily air temperature, air pressure, relative humidity, wind velocity, sunshine duration and water vapor pressure, for the same period. Totally, This study included data from 6775 patients with CHD. Results: Aft… Show more

“…In addition, the present study observed larger size of cold effect estimates in those over 65 years old. Several previous studies reported similar findings that extremely low temperature was more likely to induce an acute cardiovascular event in susceptible individuals such as the elderly 18 , 26 , 41 – 44 . A possible explanation for this increased susceptibility in the elderly relates to a reduced thermoregulation, together with a decreased capacity in perception of changes in body temperature 42 , 45 .…”

“…One possible explanation is that widespread use of central heating system in Beijing, a typical northern city in China, have improved the adaptation to cold ambient temperature in winter and usage of air conditioner in summer could relieve the hot stress in summer 39 , 40 . Besides, the ethnicity of the study participants, the climatic conditions of study area and the environmental background may contribute to the differences in the results 41 . These discrepant findings indicate that further large-scale epidemiological studies and subsequent meta-analyses are thus needed in different climate zones to determine these relationships with certainty.…”

“…Similar conclusions were drawn in a study that examined seasonal variation in the occurrence of acute aortic dissection, which has comparable pathophysiological mechanisms to ACS triggered by cold weather [35]. Data from a recent study conducted in Northeast China also showed seasonal variation confirming the effect of low air temperature having a big impact on admissions during the warm season [36].…”

“…Since 1950s, CHD as a major chronic noncommunicable disease, has imposed a huge burden on public health. 1 Coronary heart disease has become the leading cause of disability and death worldwide since 2016, according to the World Health Organization. 2 Coronary heart disease refers to plaques formed by the accumulation of some atheroma-like substances in the arterial intima.…”
