Journal ArticleDOI

Excess mortality related to the August 2003 heat wave in France.

TL;DR: While the elderly and people living alone are particularly vulnerable to heat waves, no segment of the population may be considered protected from the risks associated with heat waves and heat waves must be considered as a threat to European populations living in climates that are currently temperate.
Journal ArticleDOI

Has the impact of heat waves on mortality changed in France since the European heat wave of summer 2003? A study of the 2006 heat wave

TL;DR: The excess mortality during the 2006 heat wave may be interpreted as a decrease in the population's vulnerability to heat, together with, since 2003, increased awareness of the risk related to extreme temperatures, preventive measures and the set-up of the warning system.
Journal ArticleDOI

Ecological association between a deprivation index and mortality in France over the period 1997 – 2001: variations with spatial scale, degree of urbanicity, age, gender and cause of death

TL;DR: The deprivation index proposed reflects a major part of spatial socioeconomic heterogeneity, in a homogeneous manner over the whole country, and may be routinely used by healthcare authorities to observe, analyse, and manage spatial health inequalities.
Journal ArticleDOI

The impact of major heat waves on all-cause and cause-specific mortality in France from 1971 to 2003

TL;DR: The aim of the study was to identify the major heat waves that occurred in France from 1971 to 2003 and describe their impact on all-cause and cause-specific mortality, finding that the excess mortality is much greater than HRC mortality.
Journal ArticleDOI

Heat exposure and socio-economic vulnerability as synergistic factors in heat-wave-related mortality

TL;DR: Although a marked increase in mortality was associated with heat wave exposure for all degrees of deprivation, deprivation appears to be a vulnerability factor with respect to heat-wave-associated mortality.
