In this crossover trial in older adults with or without coronary artery disease, cardiac strain was reduced with fan use, skin wetting, or both in hot and humid conditions but worsened with fan use in very hot and dry conditions. Full trial results: https://t.co/TL24PgJA5l

Do common prescription and over-the-counter medications impair thermoregulation during heat stress? We reviewed the evidence. @GabieDillon_PhD @AndMacUSyd @LacyMAlexander @Kenney13Larry Anthony Capon @kristie_ebi @EdwardTAshworth @ollie_jay13 @DrYorgiMavros
Despite warnings that certain #medications impair #thermoregulation, limited supporting evidence exists. A new study in @eClinicalMed investigates whether @WHO listed medications increase core temperature responses during heat stress. https://t.co/IC6obx5npK

That's a wrap. Fabulous week in Phoenix @ASUGlobalFuture to share best practices, local challenges, community efforts, & #collaborative research on all things #heat, #health, & #adaptation. Temps were high, goals were set, and fun was had by all. Thanks to @HeatReadyPHX + others!

When dangerous heat waves strike, what happens inside the human body can become a life-or-death battle decided by just a few degrees.
