Spin-offs from blood pressure and heart rate studies for health care and space research

In Vivo. 1999 Jan-Feb;13(1):67-76.

Abstract

Evidence here cited underlies resolutions at international meetings to initiate a chronobiology project for health improvement. This project demonstrates expeditiously the feasibility and the health benefits of incorporating chronomedical considerations in the diagnosis, treatment, and prevention of one (or a few closely related) vascular (and oncological) diseases, that have high awareness and importance in the public perspective. Thereby, chronomedicine should become a mainstream basic and applied speciality leading to continual improvement in national/international health status. Reference data obtained for health care can also serve to give a better understanding of the relationship between the terrestrial biosphere and cosmoi near and far.
