Description
<p>Background: Although there are many reports of temperature being associated with the onset of acute coronary syndrome (ACS), few studies have examined differences in ACS due to climatic differences between Japan and Thailand. The aim of this joint Japan–Thailand study was to compare patients with myocardial infarction in Japanese and Thai hospitals in different climates.</p><p>Methods and Results: We estimated the climate data in 2021 for the Wakayama Prefecture and Chonburi Province, two medium-sized cities in Japan and Thailand, respectively, and ACS patients who were treated at the Wakayama Medical University (WMU) and Burapha University Hospital (BUH), the two main hospitals in these provinces (ACS patient numbers: WMU, n=177; BUH, n=93), respectively. In the Chonburi Province, although the average temperature was above 25℃, the number of ACS cases in BUH varied up to threefold between months (minimum: July, 4 cases; maximum: October, 14 cases). In Japan and Thailand, there was a mild to moderate negative correlation between temperature-atmospheric pressure at the onset of ACS, but different patterns for temperature-humidity (temperature-atmospheric pressure, temperature-humidity, and atmospheric pressure-humidity: correlation index; r=−0.561, 0.196, and −0.296 in WMU vs. r=−0.356, −0.606, and −0.502 in BUH).</p><p>Conclusions: The present study suggests that other climatic conditions and factors, not just temperature, might be involved in the mechanism of ACS.</p>
