Increasing heat wave conditions due to climate change may be detrimental to the health of people with diabetes -- about 537 million adults worldwide, according to a study.
A team of endocrinologists and researchers from the University of Oxford, London School of Hygiene & Tropical Medicine, and Queen Mary University of London argued that as climate change is increasing seasonal temperatures and causing more frequent heat waves, understanding their effects, especially on diabetics, has become more crucial than ever.
