Background: Although seasonal variation in stroke incidence has been reported, it is not
known whether year-long exposure to particular meteorological conditions affects the risk of …

To examine the spatial variation of stroke mortality risk during heat wave, we collected 418
stroke mortality cases with permanent addresses for a severe heat wave (July 28–August …

Background The incidence of ischemic stroke increases in winter. This study aimed to
explore the effect of winter temperatures on the risk factors, etiology, coagulation, and …

Background: Stroke has been found to have a seasonally varying incidence; blood pressure,
one of its risk factors, is influenced by humidity and temperature. The relationship between …

Introduction Meteorological factors can increase stroke risk; however, their impact is not
precisely understood. Heat waves during summer increase total mortality. Therefore, we …

Background: Given that more frequent and intensive extreme heat events have been
projected based on climate change modeling, it is of significance to have a better …

There are several studies on the impact of extreme weather on the incidence and mortality of
stroke, but the research on the effect of extreme weather events on severity and outcome of …

Many studies have shown that heat waves can cause both death and disease. Considering
the adverse health effects of heat waves on vulnerable groups, this study highlights their …

Background Studies assessing the relationship between meteorological factors and stroke
incidence are inconsistent. We assessed the associations of average temperature and …

Introduction Heatstroke mortality is highest among older adults aged 65 years and older,
and the risk is even doubled among those aged 75 years and older. The incidence of …
