A Russian research group analyzed possible correlations between capillary blood flow (CBF) and geomagnetic activity in patients with ischemic heart disease. CBF was analyzed by optical capillaroscopy of the nail bed in 81 ischemic heart disease patients. The average correlation coefficient values between the CBF condition and geomagnetic activity indices varied from 0.45 to 0.58 (with the standard deviation from 0.16 to 0.27) for different groups of patients. The authors concluded that the CBF condition in ischemic heart disease patients worsens on a day when a magnetic storm begins. [BENER 13751]
