Batibeniz F, Seneviratne S, Jha S, Ribeiro A, Suarez Gutierrez L, Raible C, et al.
Sci Rep . 2025 Jan; 15(1):1002. PMID: 39762298
The impacts of climate change on human health are often underestimated or perceived to be in a distant future. Here, we present the projected impacts of climate change in the...

Yang D, Hashizume M, Tobias A, Honda Y, Roye D, Oh J, et al.
Environ Epidemiol . 2024 Nov; 8(5):e334. PMID: 39555185
Background: The minimum mortality temperature (MMT) or MMT percentile (MMTP) is an indicator of population susceptibility to nonoptimum temperatures. MMT and MMTP change over time; however, the changing directions show...

Feurer D, Riffe T, Kniffka M, Acosta E, Armstrong B, Mistry M, et al.
Environ Epidemiol . 2024 Nov; 8(6):e338. PMID: 39534387
Objectives: While COVID-19 continues to challenge the world, meteorological variables are thought to impact COVID-19 transmission. Previous studies showed evidence of negative associations between high temperature and absolute humidity on...

Lee W, Kang C, Park C, Bell M, Armstrong B, Roye D, et al.
BMJ . 2024 Oct; 387:e077262. PMID: 39442941
Objectives: To assess the short term temporal variations in suicide risk related to the day of the week and national holidays in multiple countries. Design: Multicountry, two stage, time series...

Orlov A, De Hertog S, Havermann F, Guo S, Manola I, Lejeune Q, et al.
Environ Epidemiol . 2024 Oct; 8(6):e337. PMID: 39439814
Background: Land-use and land-cover change (LULCC) can substantially affect climate through biogeochemical and biogeophysical effects. Here, we examine the future temperature-mortality impact for two contrasting LULCC scenarios in a background...

He C, Breitner-Busch S, Huber V, Chen K, Zhang S, Gasparrini A, et al.
BMJ . 2024 Oct; 387:e080944. PMID: 39384295
Objective: To examine the associations between characteristics of daily rainfall (intensity, duration, and frequency) and all cause, cardiovascular, and respiratory mortality. Design: Two stage time series analysis. Setting: 645 locations...

Lancet Planet Health . 2024 Sep; 8(9):e657-e665. PMID: 39243781
Background: Ambient air pollution, including particulate matter (such as PM and PM) and nitrogen dioxide (NO), has been linked to increases in mortality. Whether populations' vulnerability to these pollutants has...

Guo Q, Mistry M, Zhou X, Zhao G, Kino K, Wen B, et al.
PNAS Nexus . 2024 Aug; 3(8):pgae290. PMID: 39114575
The rising humid heat is regarded as a severe threat to human survivability, but the proper integration of humid heat into heat-health alerts is still being explored. Using state-of-the-art epidemiological...

Lancet Planet Health . 2024 Jul; 8(7):e452-e462. PMID: 38969473
Background: Wildfire activity is an important source of tropospheric ozone (O) pollution. However, no study to date has systematically examined the associations of wildfire-related O exposure with mortality globally. Methods:...
