项目摘要

DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): Global climate change is expected to have impacts on human health, with likely adverse impacts on respiratory health. Anticipated respiratory impacts include heat-induced increases in air pollution, increased allergic pollen exposures from changes in climate, increased vector-born respiratory disease, and heat-stress related critical care illness. Further research is needed to better understand the probability of these projected respiratory health effects, understand their links with climate change, and develop population and individual mitigation strategies to protect human health. The proposed workshop will convene respiratory disease experts and climate change experts to develop a document for publication that describes important research questions related to the respiratory health effects of global climate change, including research questions for the developed, developing and underdeveloped world, appropriate mechanisms for answering research questions, and knowledge gaps and research infrastructure needs to address important research questions. PUBLIC HEALTH RELEVANCE (modified from application): As most recently described in the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change 2007 Fourth Assessment Report, global climate changes are likely driven by human activities and, unless quickly abated, will likely have severe and prolonged impacts on climate, including higher average temperatures and disruptions in existing weather and precipitation patterns that will adversely impact public health. Research is needed to better quantify, understand and develop mitigation and adaptation strategies to the anticipated direct and indirect respiratory health effects of climate change. Research is needed to address relevant questions for the developed, developing and under-developed world.

描述（由申请人提供）：全球气候变化预计会对人类健康产生影响，并可能对呼吸系统健康产生不利影响。预期的呼吸道影响包括热引起的空气污染增加、气候变化导致的过敏性花粉暴露增加、媒介传播的呼吸道疾病增加以及热应激相关的重症监护疾病。需要进一步的研究来更好地了解这些预计的呼吸系统健康影响的可能性，了解它们与气候变化的联系，并制定人口和个人缓解策略以保护人类健康。拟议的研讨会将召集呼吸道疾病专家和气候变化专家编写一份供出版的文件，描述与全球气候变化对呼吸健康影响相关的重要研究问题，包括针对发达国家、发展中国家和欠发达国家的研究问题、适当的回答机制研究问题、知识差距和研究基础设施需要解决重要的研究问题。公共卫生相关性（根据申请进行修改）：正如政府间气候变化专门委员会 2007 年第四次评估报告中最新描述的那样，全球气候变化可能是由人类活动驱动的，除非迅速减弱，否则可能会对气候产生严重和长期的影响，包括平均气温升高以及现有天气和降水模式的破坏，这将对公众健康产生不利影响。需要进行研究，以更好地量化、理解和制定缓解和适应战略，以应对气候变化对呼吸健康的预期直接和间接影响。需要进行研究来解决发达国家、发展中国家和欠发达国家的相关问题。
