Description
Changyu Ju and co-authors track how felt temperature, heat and cold as the body feels them, drives heart disease admissions in Xiangyang, China, in a 2025 study. Five years of records covered over 70,000 admissions. A lag-aware model sorted the effect by disease kind, since a heat spike and a cold snap may hit different hearts on different days. Age, sex, and town or country home were tested as shields or risks.
Heat lifted admissions for ischemic heart disease by about a sixth, with little move elsewhere. Cold hit wider and longer: total heart admissions rose, and some kinds, like pulmonary heart disease, jumped far more. Women, the old, and country dwellers bore the sharpest risk in extremes. The authors call for health plans aimed at those groups when temperature swings loom. Shade, warmth, and warning systems, tuned by place, form the practical core of their advice.
