Implications of climate change on acute kidney injury.
Purpose of review: Climate change is an active and growing threat to human health. This review examines the evidence linking climate change to kidney diseases, with a focus on acute kidney injury (AKI).
Recent findings: A growing body of evidence documents the adverse impact of various environmental and occupational exposures on kidney health. Extreme heat exposure increases the risk for AKI in vulnerable populations, particularly outdoor workers. These effects are being seen in both developed and developing nations, impacting equatorial as well as more northern climates. Climate change is also increasing the risk of water-borne and vector-borne infections, which are important causes of AKI in tropical regions. Due to overlapping environmental and social risk factors, populations in low-income and middle-income countries are likely to be disproportionately affected by climate-related health impacts, including heightened risk for kidney diseases.
Summary: Climate change will adversely impact global kidney health over the course of the century through effects on temperature and risk of endemic infections. Alongside efforts to aggressively reduce carbon emissions, additional research is needed to guide public and environmental health policies aimed at mitigating the impact of climate change on human health.
