Identifying the Limits of Survivability in Heat-exposed Older Females
Climate change increases extreme heat events, elevating global heat-illness risk. Females have reduced heat loss capacity (\~5%) compared to males, driven by differences in skin blood flow and sweating responses. While findings on sex-mediated mortality are mixed, some studies suggest older females (≥65 years), face higher heat-related mortality/morbidity risks, evidenced …
