Abstract
"Background: There is growing evidence on the observed and expected consequences of climate change on the health of the population worldwide. The consequences of climate change for adolescent health have however not yet been comprehensively studied. Evidence mapping has emerged as systematic, rigorous, and replicable analysis of evidence
Objectives: The goal of this study is to utilize evidence mapping to identify the impact and mitigation strategies of climate change on adolescent health.
Methods: We searched PubMed, Embase, Web of Science, Google Scholar, APA PsycINFO, and SSRN with the terms “climate change”, “natural disaster”, “global warming”, “adolescents” , “teenagers” and “students”. We included literature addressing the impact of climate change on any aspect of adolescent health.We extracted the aims, sample, design and methodology, funding source, country, and key findings and research gaps from the.We paid particular attention on the health related inequalities caused by climate change among adolescent, and the strategies to mitigate the impact of climate change on the health and well-being of adolescents.
Results: The search revealed 4665 potentially relevant articles. The types of articles included, amongst others, cohort studies, case-control studies, RCTs, and systematic reviews and meta-analyses. After the screening, we read the final included literature and extracted the information. We classified and explained the topics and scope of existing research about climate change and adolescent health and identified the key topics and research gaps under. The detailed results were presented in the Summit.
Conclusions: The results of this evidence mapping can provide valuable information for planning for research of climate change and adolescent health."
