A recent study linking hot weather with heart disease

Researchers from Adelaide University in Australia have found a link between cardiovascular disease and hot weather.
The study relied on data from the database of heart disease in Australia, which relates to the disease or death caused by heart disease, and it was found that about 7.3 percent of the total burden caused by a disease or heart disease is due to harsh weather.
Research models indicate that the number can double or even rise more than three times by 2050, according to the various gas emissions.
“When the weather is hot, our hearts work more powerfully to help us reduce our temperature, and this added pressure can be dangerous, especially for people with heart disease,” said Professor Ping B from the university.
He added: “Although the study relied on data in Australia, the relationship between high temperatures and increased risk of heart disease was documented globally.”
The researchers concluded that the effect of high temperatures on cardiovascular diseases can be reduced through strategies that help individuals adapt to hot weather, stressing that the study is the first of its kind globally.
