Climate Change Prognosis Report to the increase in heart disease | Climate crisis news
Researchers say 50,000 years of healthy life is lost annually in Australia due to cardiovascular diseases related to weather conditions.
Researchers reported on a relationship between cardiovascular problems and hot weather, predicting that heart disease could double or triple over the next 25 years if current climate trends are continued.
In a report published on Monday, researchers in Australia said they found out that it was 49,483 from A healthy life They were lost every year due to cardiovascular diseases caused by hot weather. They warned that according to current climatic trends, the influence of extreme weather occurs in the coming decades.
A study, published in the European journal Heart Journal, used data from the Australian database on disease disease on disease caused by heart disease from 2003 to 2018.
“When the weather is hot, our hearts have to work more to help us cool down. This additional pressure can be dangerous, especially for people with cardiovascular disease,” said Professor Peng from the University of Adelaida.
Researchers calculated that 7.3 percent of total cargo due to cardiovascular disease or death could be attributed to Extreme weather conditions.
Modeling suggests that the figure could double or even triple by 2050, depending on the various screenplays of greenhouse gases listed in The inter -government panel on climate changeAccording to the report.
‘The first such study’
“Although our study is aimed at Australia, the fundamental connection between higher temperatures and increased cardiovascular risk is documented globally,” said Jingwen Liu Author of the University of Adelaida.
Liu noted that research “is the first of its kind globally,”
The authors also found that there was a scope to reduce the impact of high temperatures on cardiovascular disease with strategies that help people adapt.
“Our discoveries also require urgent investment in adjustment and mitigation strategies, including urban cooling plans, public health campaigns and improved emergency answers during hot weather,” he said.
