Climate Change Linked to Half a Million Stroke Deaths in 2019

climate change, found that in 2019 climate change could have been linked to more than half a million deaths from stroke across the world.

“Dramatic temperature changes in recent years have affected human health and caused widespread concern,” study author Quan Cheng, of Xiangya Hospital Central South University in China,. “Our study found that these changing temperatures may increase the burden of stroke worldwide, especially in older populations and areas with more health care disparities.”in Canada, according to Statistics Canada. It happens when blood stops flowing to any part of your brain, damaging brain cells.

It may be linked to traditional factors such as high blood pressure, cholesterol levels, sedentary lifestyles and cigarette smoking, he said. But Blacquiere suggests that other factors may be at play, raising the question of whether environmental conditions also contribute to this trend. The team found the majority of these strokes were due to lower-than-optimal temperatures, however, they also found an increase in strokes tied to higher-than-optimal temperatures.“With lower temperatures, a person’s blood vessels can constrict, increasing blood pressure. High blood pressure is a risk factor for stroke,” the researchers stated.
