Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Climate change has had a widespread impact on humans and natural systems. Heat exhaustion is a heat-related illness that can occur after exposure to hot environments. Signs include excessive thirst, weakness, headache, loss of consciousness, dizziness, muscle cramps, nausea, and vomiting. Heat exhaustion is not as serious as heat stroke, but without proper intervention, it can progress to heat stroke, which can damage the brain and other vital organs. The present study focused on the human cognitive function by using psychological, physiological, and neuroscientific methods after exposure to hot environments. We also investigated the effect of general treatment for heat exhaustion on the function.
