Abstract

Background: Meteorological parameters and Seasonal changes can play an important role in the occurrence of Acute coronary syndrome (ACS). However, there is almost no evidence on a national level to suggest the associations between these variables and ACS in Iran. We aim to identify the Meteorological parameters and Seasonal changes in relationship to ACS. Methods: This retrospective cross-sectional study was conducted between 03/19/2015 to 03/18/2016 and used documents and records of patients with ACS in Mazandaran Province Heart Center, Iran. The following definitive diagnostic criteria for ACS were used: (1) existence of cardiac enzymes (CK or CK-MB) above the normal range; (2) Greater than 1 mm ST-segment elevation or depression; (3) abnormal Q waves; and (4) manifestation of troponin enzyme in the blood. Data were collected daily, such as temperature (Celsius) changes, wind speed and its direction, rainfall, daily evaporation rate; number of sunny days, and relative humidity were provided by the Meteorological Organization of Iran. Results: A sample of 2, 054 patients with ACS were recruited. The results indicated the highest ACS events from March to May. Generally, wind speed (18 PM) [IRR = 1. 051 (95% CI: 1. 019 to 1. 083), P = 0. 001], daily evaporation [IRR = 1. 039 (95% CI: 1. 003 to 1. 077), P = 0. 032], daily maximum (P < 0. 001) and minimum (P = 0. 003) relative humidity was positively correlated with ACS events. Also, negatively correlated variables were daily relative humidity (18 PM) [IRR = 0. 985 (95% CI: 0. 978 to 0. 992), P < 0. 001], and daily minimum temperature [IRR = 0. 942 (95% CI: 0. 927 to 0. 958), P < 0. 001]. Conclusion: Climate changes were found to be significantly associated with ACS; especially from cold weather to hot weather in March, April and May. Further research is needed to fully understand the specific conditions and cold exposures.
