Menopause. 2020 Jul;27(7):816-817. doi: 10.1097/GME.0000000000001521.
Climate change is known to impact men and women differently and yet how it will change the health impact of menopause, specifically hot flashes, has not been well researched or understood. Given the duration of symptoms, the high number of women suffering from them, and the associated consequences, any marginal change in incidence due to climate change could result in a very large number of women being affected. Global health systems need to be prepared for this and ensure that gendered issues like menopause do not fall through the cracks as we prepare for our future climate. : Video Summary:http://links.lww.com/MENO/A549.
气候变化已知对男性和女性的影响不同,但它将如何改变更年期(尤其是热潮红)对健康的影响尚未得到充分研究或理解。鉴于症状的持续时间、受其影响的女性数量众多,以及相关的后果,由于气候变化导致发病率出现任何微小变化,都可能导致大量女性受到影响。全球卫生系统需要为此做好准备,并确保在为未来的气候做准备时,不会忽视像更年期这样的性别问题。: 视频摘要:http://links.lww.com/MENO/A549.
