  • Title: [Effect of age, sex and season factors on sudden death in ischemic heart disease].
    Author: Svishchev AV, Sirotinskaia FZ.
    Journal: Arkh Patol; 1978; 40(10):14-8. PubMed ID: 736809.
    Abstract:
    Statistical analysis of 525 cases of sudden death was done on the data of forensic medical examinations of cadavers of subjects suffering from ischemic heart disease (IHD). In the structure of cases of sudden death in IHD the percentage of men was shown to be approximately twice as high as that of women. An increase in the percentage of women in older age groups and a stronger effect of the age factor in women on the frequency of sudden death in IHD were noted. There was a strong correlation between the frequency of sudden death in IHD and the heart mass. Most cases of sudden death in IHD were registered in the autumn-winter period.
