The frequency of days (Tmax≥36°C) is an increasing trend in the south-western part of Bangladesh. The synoptic condition in and around Bangladesh demonstrates that the entrance of heat waves in Bangladesh is due to the advection of higher temperatures from the s...
This combines with the wider warming from climate change to subject city dwellers to a disproportionate toll of heat waves that are longer, more frequent, and more sweltering than rural residents experience. Those living in dense urban centers are on the front lines of extreme heat made worse by...
"An innovative aspect of this work is that, rather than preselect a few individual diseases to examine, we considered all possible causes of hospital admission during heat waves in order to characterize the effects of heat on multiple organ systems," said Francesca Dominici, professor of biostatist...
Over the past decades, the coastal China seas (CCSs) have experienced strong warming and frequent extremely high sea temperature events (marine heatwaves, MHWs), resulting in a series of ecological disasters, including mass mortality of marine organisms
In boreal summer of 2022, Pakistan experienced extremely high rainfall, resulting in severe flooding and displacing over 30 million people. At the same time, heatwaves persisted over central China and Europe. The coexistence of these extreme events suggests a possible linkage. Our analysis indicated...
For example, smooth muscle in the intestinal wall can go into spasm, causing waves of pain called colic. Colicky pain, which tends to come and go, may also occur within the bile duct that empties the gallbladder and may develop after eating. When kidney stones try to pass through the ...
Climate and environmental changes threaten human mental health, but the impacts of specific environmental conditions on neuropsychiatric disorders remain largely unclear. Here, we show the impact of a humid heat environment on the brain and the gut micro
Ensure the plant is kept in 6-8 hours direct sunlight (+ 2 hours for indoor basil). As for reducing environmental stresses, small-space gardener Catlin Joyce atBotanical Balconysuggests adding a “thin layer of gravel to the soil– this helps with drainage but also reflects heat upwards into...
Picture of internal and external hemorrhoids Hemorrhoids (piles) are blood vessels located in the smooth muscles of the walls of the rectum and anus. They are a normal part of the anatomy and are located at the junction where small arteries merge into veins. They are cushioned by smooth muscl...
