Analysis narrows down the risks associated with seasonal time change

An analysis conducted by the academics José María Martín Olalla (University of Seville) and Jorge Mira Pérez (University of Santiago de Compostela) narrows down the impact on health of the time change in the week following the date of the change. To do so, they have analyzed eight papers that measure the influence on myocardial infarction and ischemia and five papers that do so on the basis of data on traffic accidents and admissions to accident and emergency for traumas. The study is published in the journal Chronobiology International.
