First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This completed study exposed 27 healthy young adults to either high heat (35°C) or moderate temperature (24°C) for three hours. Researchers measured changes in blood pressure, heart function, and lung capacity to understand how heat stress affects the body. The goal was to uncover the underlying mechanisms of heat-related health risks.
