Correction: Associations of heatwaves and their characteristics with ischaemic stroke hospital admissions

Key Points

• Heatwaves significantly increase ischaemic stroke hospital admissions, indicating a crucial public health risk.
• Increased hospital admissions associated with heatwaves were reported, particularly during significant temperature spikes.
• Observational analysis of climatic factors across multiple regions suggested a clear correlation with stroke incidents.
• Results underscore the importance of monitoring temperature extremes to mitigate adverse health effects, especially during heatwaves.
