Journal ArticleDOI
Mapping community determinants of heat vulnerability.
Colleen E. Reid,Marie S. O'Neill,Carina J. Gronlund,Shannon J. Brines,Daniel G. Brown,Ana V. Diez-Roux,Jennifer Schwartz +6 more
TL;DR: The evidence that heat waves can result in both increased deaths and illness is substantial, and concern over this issue is rising because of climate change as discussed by the authors, and adverse health impacts from h...
Journal ArticleDOI
Heat, heat waves, and hospital admissions among the elderly in the United States, 1992-2006
TL;DR: Extreme heat is associated with increased hospital admissions, particularly for renal causes, among the elderly in the United States, 1992–2006.
Journal ArticleDOI
Racial and socioeconomic disparities in heat-related health effects and their mechanisms: a review.
TL;DR: Pre-existing and future research identifying more proximal indicators of vulnerability will provide information that is more generalizable across locations and time to aid in identifying who to target for prevention of heat-associated morbidity and mortality.
Journal ArticleDOI
Summer temperature variability and long-term survival among elderly people with chronic disease
TL;DR: The data suggest that long-term increases in temperature variability may increase the risk of mortality in different subgroups of susceptible older populations.
Journal ArticleDOI
Susceptibility to mortality in weather extremes: effect modification by personal and small-area characteristics.
TL;DR: Several subpopulations of the population are identified who are particularly susceptible to temperature extremes, including persons with atrial fibrillation and subjects with Alzheimer disease.
