Abstract

Background: This study aims to provide asthma and harsh weather. Methods: Following PRISMA 2020 guidelines, this systematic review focused exclusively on full-text articles published in English between 2014 and 2024. Result: The study conducted a comprehensive review of over 100 publications sourced from reputable databases, including ScienceDirect, SagePub, and PubMed. Following an initial screening, five publications were identified as warranting more in-depth analysis. Consequently, a thorough review of these selected studies was performed to ensure a detailed and rigorous evaluation. Conclusion: The risk of asthma morbidity and mortality in females and children was more significantly elevated by extreme weather events. Controlling asthma is critically affected by climate change.
