The influence of climate on the spread of no communicable diseases (NCDs) is a growing concern in public health research. Climatic factors such as temperature, precipitation and humidity can directly or indirectly influence the incidence and prevalence of various NCDs, including cardiovascular diseases, respiratory diseases and some types of cancer. Understanding the complex relationship between climate dynamics and the nature of NCDs is essential for developing effective prevention strategies and mitigating the global health burden of these diseases. This article reviews current evidence on the influence of climate on the prevalence of NCDs and discusses potential mechanisms underlying these associations, highlighting the importance of climate change adaptation and resilience in public health policy and practice.
