Maternal acute thermophysiological stress and stillbirth in Western Australia, 2000–2015: A space-time-stratified case-crossover analysis

Maternal acute thermophysiological stress and stillbirth in Western Australia, 2000–2015: A space-time-stratified case-crossover analysis

Background: The extreme thermal environment driven by climate change disrupts thermoregulation in pregnant women and may threaten the survival of the developing fetus. Objectives: To investigate the acute effect of maternal exposure to thermophysiological stress (measured with Universal Thermal Clim...
