The researchers in Australia reached a link between cardiovascular disease and hot weather, as they expected that the burden of heart disease will be doubled by the fifties of the twenty -first century if the current weather continues, according to a study published today, Monday.
The researchers concluded that an average of 49,483 years of healthy life is lost annually due to heart disease caused by hot weather in Australia from 2003 to 2018.
The authors of the study, published in the European Heart, used data from the database of diseases in Australia on the disease or the death caused by heart disease during that time period.
After that, they concluded that about 7.3 percent of the total burden caused by the disease or the death of heart disease is due to the harsh weather conditions.
Research models indicate that the number can double or even rise by more than three times by 2050, based on the various gas emissions scenarios set by a government committee on climate change.
Less emissions scenario corresponds to a lower burden – estimated at 139,828 years of healthy life, which will be lost annually by 2050; While the upper emissions scenario indicates a higher burden of 161,95 years of average life, which will be lost annually by 2050.
“When the weather is hot, our hearts work more powerfully to help us reduce our temperature,” said Professor Ping B of Adelaide University. This added pressure can be dangerous, especially for people with cardiovascular disease. ”
He added: “Although the study focused on Australia, the main bond between high temperatures and increased risk of heart disease was internationally documented.”
“This study mixes many major factors, such as climate change, population transformations and adaptation scenarios, in order to give a full picture of the disease over the disease across Australia,” said Jingoin Liu of the University of Adelaide, who is participating in the study situation.
“This makes our first study of its kind globally,” Leo highlighted.
The researchers found that there is a range to reduce the effect of high temperatures on cardiovascular diseases, through strategies that help people adapt to high temperatures.
