Association of Ambient Temperature with Mortality in Resident and Multiethnic Transient Populations in a Desert Climate, 2006-2014

Saber Yezli et al.

Summary: This study investigated the relationship between ambient temperature and mortality among Mecca residents and Hajj pilgrims. The findings revealed that pilgrims were more sensitive to high temperatures and had significantly higher mortality rates associated with hot temperatures compared to Mecca residents. These results suggest the need for precision public health measures to protect diverse populations from the impacts of high temperatures during mass gatherings.

Excess mortality attributed to heat and cold: a health impact assessment study in 854 cities in Europe

Pierre Masselot et al.

Summary: This study conducted a comprehensive assessment of mortality impact due to heat and cold in European urban areas, taking into account geographical differences and age-specific risks. The results showed variations in effects across Europe and age groups, with the highest impacts in eastern European cities. These findings are crucial for the development of national and local health and climate policies and for projecting the effects of cold and heat under future climatic and socioeconomic scenarios.
