Results Between 2015 and 2019, the economic impact of selected health effects of heat waves amounts to 鈧5 billion, mainly in mortality (鈧2 billion), minor restricted activity days (鈧 billion), and morbidity (鈧31 billion). Conclusion The results highlight a significant economic burden on ...
The epidemiological studies show the relation of temperature with high humidity to health effects as a composite measure. The study shows a smaller magnitude and less consistency of heat effects to morbidity as compared in mortality, and suggests the use of air currents for temperature reduction....
Dwelling and neighbourhood characteristics associated with the prevalence of self-reported heat-induced adverse health effects are not well known. We interviewed 3485 people in the most disadvantaged neighbourhoods of the nine largest cities in Québec, Canada. The prevalence of heat-induced adverse heal...
Physiological effects Another, lesser-known health benefit of infrared is the way that our body interacts with it. When the body absorbs infrared heat it increases blood circulation, enhances the immune system and reduces joint pain and inflammation, the same effects as being in a sauna. If you...
Taking into account the effects of heat acclimation/acclimatisation is important especially in the context of the current study since it has been shown that the impacts of heat acclimation are most evident when experiencing conditions of uncompensable heat stress50. However, it must be kept in ...
the RR of all cause and cardiovascular mortality did not persist past 2 days and that by day 11 the sum of the effects for all-cause mortality was 0 (the risk for respiratory cause mortality, however, remained over the 28 day period tested). In contrast, the excess risk of heat on mor...
The impact of high temperatures on mortality is well known, but not all deaths that occur during heat waves can be explained by this effect. We evaluated w... Sabine,Hertel,Alain,... - 《European Journal of Epidemiology》 被引量: 74发表: 2009年 Effects of Air Temperature on Climate-Sensi...
BACKGROUND: Although many studies have shown that high temperatures are associated with an increased risk of mortality and morbidity, there has been little research on managing the process of planned adaptation to alleviate the health effects of heat events and climate change. In particular, economic...
Climate change has caused rising temperatures across the US; while average temperatures have risen, extreme heat events have increased across the board. This study found thatfrom 1999 to 2017, all ages of American Indians/Native Alaskans and Black people had higher mortality rates from excessive he...
The studies included in this review indicate that not only is there a need for further research on the ways that climate change, and heat in particular, may affect maternal health and neonatal outcomes, but that uniform standards for assessing the effects of heat on maternal fetal health also ...
