TODO - Mapping time-structures is a burgeoning scientific field enriching the (P4) medicine models. Local evidence in Mediterranean populations is underinvestigated. The Censed stroke-related death events (D) in the largest East-Mediterranean port (Piraeus), during (1985-1989), when local population had diet and genetic homogeneity-been interrupted by the immigration into Greece in 1990s, and Sunspot numbers indexed by Wolf numbers (Rz) (1944-2004), were evaluated using Fast Fourier Analysis and Singular Spectrum Analysis in MATLAB. D were turned with fluctuations >35% in Rz. A non-anthropogenic 6.8 days cycle was recognized. This study may be taken into consideration in future public health planning and chronotherapy evaluations. © 2020 Geronikolou S et al.
