Summary:The majority of the biomarkers of health in our body have a circadian rhythm on a 24-hour scale. Both the physiological and pathological functions of the cardiovascular organs are closely related to the internal circadian rhythm. Heart rate, blood pressure and all hormones showed daily fluctuations throughout the day. Numerous studies have shown that high blood pressure, diabetes, and cardiovascular disease, such as acute coronary syndrome, atrial arrhythmias and subarachnoid hemorrhage, are closely related to day and night fluctuations. Here, Halabi et al show that cardiovascular events have a seasonal variation in addition to the diurnal variation.
