20 cze 2023 · Climate change-related factors impact the skin’s capacity to maintain homeostasis, leading to a variety of cutaneous diseases. Stratospheric ozone depletion has led to increased risk of melanoma and keratinocyte carcinomas due to ultraviolet radiation exposure.
1 paź 2022 · Dermatological conditions discussed in this article are related both to the primary effects of climate change exerted on the skin as well as the secondary effects of EWE such as insect proliferation, population displacement, inadequate sanitation and hygiene infrastructure, and limited access to health services.
21 lis 2015 · For dermatology, climate change may lead to increased incidence of skin cancer due to rising temperatures and more UV exposure, more cases of skin infection due to extreme weather events, and altered disease vector patterns due to climate shifts.
Climate change is a lasting alteration in patterns of weather caused by factors such as oceanic circulation, variations in solar radiation, plate tectonics, volcanic eruptions, and human factors. These factors may impact global or local temperature, humidity, rainfall, and weather extremes.
Whether sparked by a natural disaster or climate migration, stress can both cause and worsen skin conditions such as psoriasis, dermatitis, hives, hair loss, and vitiligo, in which patches of skin lose their pigment, Andersen pointed out in Environment and Skin in 2018.
