Climate Change on Pediatric Health Outcomes - Coggle Diagram
Climate Change on Pediatric Health Outcomes
Infectious Disease
Malaria
Rainfall anomalies
Temperature increases
Increased child mortality and hospitalizations
Age-dependent
Diarrheal disease
Variations in precipitation
Increased temperature and humidity
Geographical differences
Increased prevalence and risk in the dry season
Water quality and sanitation impacts transmission
Negative correlation with sanitation and hygiene practices
Respiratory health and infection
Promoted by ambient air pollution
Rural areas and school-zones have increased pollution levels
Increased temperature and floods
Increased prevalence and risk
Displacement may lead to overcrowding
leading to increased transmission
Bacterial and parasitic infection
Water quality and contamination
Propagated by flooding and increased temperature
Optimal conditions for pathogen reproduction
Hygiene and sanitation
Water-borne diseases
Vector-borne diseases
Food-borne diseases
Environmental Effects
Floods
Agricultural production impacted
Malnutrition
Increased disease susceptibility
Water quality declines
Sanitation
Precipitation
Drought
Humidity
Favourable pathogen breeding conditions
Exacerbation of the dry season
Increased risk of diarrheal disease
Drought
High maximum temperatures
High humidity
Temperature fluctuations
Optimal temperature for pathogen reproduction
Increase in communicable disease risk and mortality
Air pollution
Traffic
Emissions from industrial infrastructure
Acute respiratory infection and associated symptoms
Mortality and Malnutrition
Predicted to have the highest burden in sub-Saharan Africa
Agricultural production affected
Malnutrition and food insecurity
Water sanitation may decrease stunting
Positive correlation with droughts, temperature changes, and dry season.
Power Structures, Politics, and Practice
Limited healthcare access
Lack of preventative measures
Need for community-targeted intervention
More inclusive research practices and design to inform policy
Government intervention required
International collaborative efforts to achieve SDGs
