The mechanism-specific injury mortality burden associated with heatwave in China in a warming world by Jianxiong Hu, Shaoli Huang, Yulin Zhuo, Jianhua Zhang, Weiwei Gong, Guanhao He, Maigeng Zhou, Fangfang Zeng, Ruilin Meng, Tao Liu, Chunliang Zhou, Yize Xiao, Min Yu, Biao Huang, Guoxia Bai, Hua Guo, Wenjun Ma

“…Additionally, future mortality burdens from 2030 to 2099 were projected, revealing that under the SSP5-8.5 scenario, the attributable fractions (AFs) of injury mortality due to heatwaves is expected to escalate from 2.66 % in the 2030s (95 % CI: 2.02 %, 3.44 %) to 7.72 % (95 % CI: 5.87 %, 9.97 %) in the 2090s, particularly in southwest China. Regarding specific mechanisms of injury, AFs for drowning is projected to rise significantly from 4.60 % (95 % CI: 3.36 %, 5.87 %) in the 2030s to 13.35 % (95 % CI: 9.75 %, 17.02 %) by the 2090s under the SSP5-8.5 scenario. …”
