<description xml:lang='en' descriptionType='Abstract'>The present article presents the results of a fi ve-year research (2001-2005) on the infl uence of the abrupt
weather changes calculated by the Index of weather variability provided by V. I. Rusanov on the cerebrovascular
disease mortality in the city of Sofi a.
Our fi ndings didn’t point towards a signifi cant infl uence of the abrupt weather changes on the mortality
related to cerebrovascular diseases. Possible reasons for that had been discussed. The slight discrepancy
between these results and the data obtained from the literature makes necessary the further precision of our
research on the infl uence of the abrupt weather changes on cerebrovascular disease mortality, as these are
expected to become more frequent, given the currently observed climate changes on a global scale.</description>
