Heat exposure and hospitalizations for chronic kidney disease in China: a nationwide time series study in 261 major Chinese cities

RESEARCH | Updated：2025-12-13

- Heat exposure and hospitalizations for chronic kidney disease in China: a nationwide time series study in 261 major Chinese cities
- “Climate change's impact on global health is increasingly evident, with a new study revealing a link between heat exposure and chronic kidney disease (CKD). Researchers utilized a national inpatient database in China to analyze the relationship between heat exposure and CKD hospitalizations during the hot season from 2015 to 2018. The study found that a 1℃ increase in daily mean temperature raised the risk of CKD hospitalizations, with a 5.50% attributable fraction due to high temperatures. The findings underscore the need for protective strategies against the adverse effects of high temperatures.”
