Cardiovascular System Interactions With The Local Earth Magnetic Field Fluctuations A Cohort Study

" Association between human beings and the magnetic Environment could be explained by overlaps between human brain waves captured on an electroencephalogram (EEG) and Schumann resonance waves [9, 12, 16-18] and Field-line resonances. It was stated, that that Schnumman resonances start at 7.83 Hz and there are 8 of all of them which overlap with EEG rhythms. Field-line resonance oscillations (0.1 Hz) corresponds to heart rhythm activity, and oscillations of the autonomic nervous system [9, 16-18]. " {Credits 1}

" The local magnetic field (LMF) strength has been measured in pico-Teslas (pT). Power of certain frequency interval was calculated in pT² . The LMF was analysed in five frequency ranges that overlap with the EEG ranges [Hz], but to differentiate those magnetic field frequency ranges which are in same range as the EEG bands we add an S in front: (SDelta) [0; 3.5 Hz], (STheta) [3.5; 7 Hz], (SAlpha) [7; 15 Hz], (SBeta) [15; 32 Hz], (SGamma) [32; 65 Hz]." {Credits 1}

" The first thing we observed in this study was that the strength of the resonant frequencies in local magnetic field, is continually changing (Fig.1). Tendencies of LMF weakening were observed between 2014 and 2016, when LMF was the weakest during the observational period. It was observed that an abrupt increase of LMF strength occurred from 2016 to 2017, and that since then the amplitude of the LMF resonances has continued to increase showing the highest ever observed values in 2019 (Fig. 1). Moreover, it is noticeable that LMF reaches its highest peaks in July-August and decreases to lowest value in winter months – December and January. Scientists have suggested that people are able to better tolerate LMF increases in the Spring season as compared to its decrease in the Autumn [23]." {Credits 1}

" Schumann resonances in four countries are shown in Fig. 2. It is clearly seen that the peaks of resonances are the same all around the World and differ only in their intensities in the different frequency ranges. The most expressed LMF intensities are in SDelta range (0-3,5 Hz), which usually is related with Earth terrene fluctuations and in SGamma range (32-65Hz), which is mostly related to country electricity networks frequency." {Credits 1}

" It was found that a higher LMF activity in the low frequency ranges is associated with lower number of admissions due to ACS [Acute Coronary Syndrome], while a higher LMF activity in high frequency ranges is associated with increased risk for ACS occurrence. ... It is interesting, that a greater LMF activity in the low frequency ranges was associated with higher rates of admission due to cardiac arrhythmias (Fig. 4)." {Credits 1}

" In patients admitted due to AMI [Acute Myocardial Infarction], several additional analyses were conducted. Interesting results were found in the analyses of blood test parameters’ and the associations with changes in LMF strength. It was observed that total blood count significantly correlates with LMF changes in low frequency range. Red blood cells count decreases with increased LMF strength in low frequency ranges, while white blood cells and platelet counts increases in the same frequency ranges (Fig.5). Completely different results were found in an analyses of serum Chlorine to Natrium ratio (Cl/Na). It replicated admission due to ACS results, showing moderate to strong negative correlations with the low frequency ranges and moderate positive correlations in the SGamma range (Fig. 6). This suggests that Cl/Na is strongly associated with occurrence of AMI. Similar results have been found in analysis of the blood osteocalcin levels (Fig. 7)." {Credits 1}

" Strong significant correlations (r>0.8, p<0.05) were found between the number of cases admitted per day and the LMF strength changes 2- and 3- days before admission (Fig. 8)." {Credits 1}

" This let presume that a higher LMF intensity in high frequency range is associated with more severe deterioration of patients with IHD [Ischaemic Heart Disease] health condition [29]. Scientists analysing LMF, have concluded that LMF in low frequency ranges has positive influence on patients with IHD wellbeing [30]. It has recently been found that endothelial function is enhanced by LMF oscillations at extremely low frequencies (0.01-0.02 Hz) [30]. These Ultra-low frequencies are in the same frequency range of endothelial vibrations [30]. LMF fluctuations that coincide with endothelial vibrations, appears to activate endothelium, and improve its function [30]." {Credits 1}
