Analysis of the time of onset of chest pain in 2254 patients with a myocardial infarction admitted to a coronary care unit in Leicester during a 10-year period shows an association with temperature and humidity. During both the most cold and humid times of the year, the relationship is a strong one. A generalized linear model with a log link was used to fit the data and the backward elimination selection procedure suggested a humid, cold day might help to trigger the occurrence of myocardial infarction. In addition, cold weather was found to have a stronger effect on the male population while those men aged between 50 and 70 years were more sensitive to the effect of high humidity.
对10年间入住莱斯特冠心病监护病房的2254例心肌梗死患者胸痛发作时间的分析显示，胸痛发作时间与温度和湿度有关。在一年中最冷且最潮湿的时期，这种关系最为明显。采用对数连接的广义线性模型对数据进行拟合，向后逐步回归筛选程序表明潮湿寒冷的天气可能促使心肌梗死的发生。此外，发现寒冷天气对男性人群影响更大，而年龄在50至70岁之间的男性对高湿度的影响更为敏感。
