Abstract

Purpose of Review

As temperatures rise from human-driven climate change, adverse health outcomes will become more prominent, especially in children. Heat worsens other aspects of climate change in a vicious cycle, including air and water pollution, extreme weather events, and resource scarcity. These health outcomes are already magnified in minoritized communities globally, due to systems of power and oppression. This review summarizes research on pediatric health consequences of heat, and explores structural factors driving heat-related health inequity.

Recent Findings

There is growing literature on heat-related impacts on disease-specific outcomes that can generally be categorized by organ system. There already exists robust extra-medical literature on drivers of heat inequity in urban, rural, and global communities.

Summary

Heat impacts pediatric health across organ systems, especially as the population becomes more medically complex. This review can guide further research in pediatric-specific outcomes and emphasizes the need for multidisciplinary, community-centered efforts to mitigate health inequity in heat and climate change.

Ähnliche Überlebensraten nach Reanimation während des Transports bzw. vor Ort

29.05.2024 Reanimation im Kindesalter Nachrichten

Laut einer Studie aus den USA und Kanada scheint es bei der Reanimation von Kindern außerhalb einer Klinik keinen Unterschied für das Überleben zu machen, ob die Wiederbelebungsmaßnahmen während des Transports in die Klinik stattfinden oder vor Ort ausgeführt werden. Jedoch gibt es dabei einige Einschränkungen und eine wichtige Ausnahme.

Alter der Mutter beeinflusst Risiko für kongenitale Anomalie

28.05.2024 Kinder- und Jugendgynäkologie Nachrichten

Welchen Einfluss das Alter ihrer Mutter auf das Risiko hat, dass Kinder mit nicht chromosomal bedingter Malformation zur Welt kommen, hat eine ungarische Studie untersucht. Sie zeigt: Nicht nur fortgeschrittenes Alter ist riskant.

Begünstigt Bettruhe der Mutter doch das fetale Wachstum?

24.05.2024 Pränatale und perinatale Diagnostik Nachrichten

Ob ungeborene Kinder, die kleiner als die meisten Gleichaltrigen sind, schneller wachsen, wenn die Mutter sich mehr ausruht, wird diskutiert. Die Ergebnisse einer US-Studie sprechen dafür.

Bei Amblyopie früher abkleben als bisher empfohlen?

22.05.2024 Fehlsichtigkeit Nachrichten

Bei Amblyopie ist das frühzeitige Abkleben des kontralateralen Auges in den meisten Fällen wohl effektiver als der Therapiestandard mit zunächst mehrmonatigem Brilletragen.
