TL;DR
This nationwide study demonstrated age- and disease subtype-specific heterogeneity in temperature-related kidney disease risks and suggests that, in addition to older adults, younger and middle-aged populations should be primarily considered in climate change adaptation strategies targeting kidney health.
Short-term extreme heat exposure is associated with increased mortality in patients with CKD, with heightened vulnerability in specific subgroups, and the need for targeted preventive strategies in the CKD population is highlighted.

BACKGROUND
Children are vulnerable to heat, yet evidence on heat-related pediatric emergency department (ED) use in Germany remains limited. We quantified the acute short-term effects of extreme heat exposure on ED visits among children aged 0-18 years in Baden-Württemberg, Germany.
METHODOLOGY
We assessed short-term...

Background: Extreme temperatures affect health, but nationwide evidence on injury-related hospitalization and economic burden in East Asia is scarce. We aimed to quantify the nonlinear and lagged associations between ambient temperature and injury-related hospitalization and the attributable economic burden. Methods: T...
Background: Environmental factors, particularly temperature-related exposures, are increasingly recognized as important determinants of tuberculosis (TB) disease progression and symptom manifestation. However, the evidence regarding the associations of heat exposure, cold exposure, and diurnal temperature range (DTR) w...

Maternal heat exposure is significantly associated with increased HDP risk, particularly preeclampsia, with pronounced effects in arid regions and late pregnancy, and these findings support integrating climate-adaptive strategies into antenatal care.

Importance Age based screening and prevention guidelines in healthcare are developed largely in populations without Down syndrome (DS). If disease risk among individuals with DS differs significantly relative to typically developing (TD) individuals of similar ages, standard guidelines may overlook critical windows of...
