Thermal variability and the geography of optimal temperature for child survival: childhood respiratory-infection mortality in 171 countries: a systematic analysis of the Global Burden of Disease Study 2023 and the C-LSAT high-resolution climate dataset

Background In adults, cold-attributable mortality exceeds heat-attributable mortality roughly 17-fold. Child-specific evidence has begun to emerge only recently - a nationwide Brazilian case-crossover study located the minimum mortality temperature (MMT) for under-five deaths, and a 56-country survey-based analysis lin...
