Fertilite Üzerine Etkileri Göz Ardı Edilen Bir Faktör: İklim Değişikliği ve Sonuçları

Abstract

İklim değişikliği, günümüzde insanlığın karşı karşıya kaldığı en yaygın küresel çevre sorunlarındandır. İklim değişikliği, karbondioksit gibi ısıyı tutan gazların atmosferde artmasıyla oluşan ve atmosfere salınan sera gazlarının neden olduğu düşünülen sera etkisinin sonucunda, Dünya üzerinde yıl boyunca kara, deniz ve havada ölçülen ortalama sıcaklıkların artması nedeniyle Dünyanın ikliminin değişmesidir Dünyanın doğal dengesinde yaşanan iklim değişimlerinin insan sağlığına etkileri de görünür hale gelmeye başlamıştır. İnsan sağlığının göstergelerinden biri olarak fertilite de iklim değişikliğinden doğrudan ve dolaylı olarak etkilenmektedir. Bu derlemede iklim değişikliğinin ve yarattığı sonuçların kadın ve erkek fertilitesi üzerine olan etkilerini belirleyerek bu alana dikkat çekmek ve farkındalık yaratmak amaçlanmıştır. Çalışma Dokuz Eylül Üniversitesi e-kütüphane alt yapısı kullanılarak Google Scholar, PubMed, Science Open ve Elsevier veri tabanlarından yayımlanma tarihine bakılmaksızın tam metin olarak ulaşılabilen 27 çalışma ele alınmıştır.

A Factor Whose Effects on Fertility are Overlooked: Climate Change and Its Consequences

Abstract

Climate change is one of the most common global environmental problems facing humanity today. Climate change is the change of the Earth's climate due to the increase in the average temperatures measured on land, sea and air throughout the year, as a result of the greenhouse effect, which is thought to be caused by the greenhouse gases released into the atmosphere, which occur due to the increase in heat-trapping gases such as carbon dioxide, and the effects of climate changes in the natural balance of the Earth on human health. has begun to become visible. Fertility, as one of the indicators of human health, is also directly and indirectly affected by climate change. In this review, it is aimed to draw attention to this area and raise awareness by determining the effects of climate change and its consequences on male and female fertility. In the study, 27 studies that could be accessed in full text from Google Scholar, PubMed, Science Open and Elsevier databases, regardless of their publication date, were discussed using the Dokuz Eylül University e-library infrastructure.
