Abstract:

Geomagnetic disturbances (GMD) are significant perturbations in Earth's magnetosphere caused by solar wind interactions. This paper explores the impact of GMD on human health, particularly cardiovascular diseases (CVD). The proposed mechanisms include alterations in the autonomic nervous system, circadian rhythm disturbances, changes in blood viscosity, and psychiatric effects. Understanding these impacts can enhance medical protocols and patient care during geomagnetic storms.

General note:

Communications of the Byurakan Astrophysical Observatory (ComBAO) is a peer-reviewed scientific journal, which publishes research in observational and theoretical astronomy/astrophysics and presents recent advances in these fields. It is being published by the NAS RA V. Ambartsumian Byurakan Astrophysical Observatory (BAO) in English in electronic form. The journal publishes original papers, review papers, brief reports, book reviews, special communications, observational and theoretical results in various fields of astronomy and related sciences, and some editorial notes, including anniversaries and obituaries. Under the heading “Legacy”, the renewed magazine will republish some old articles of high value in English. The heading “Guest articles” will bring to the attention of readers the articles of researchers who are not employees of BAO. ComBAO was founded in 1946 and regularly published in 1946-1990. However, the publication was interrupted because of the economic situation after the disintegration of the Soviet Union in 1991.
