| Abstract | ||||
| Climate change profoundly affects the epidemiology of parasitic diseases by altering environmental conditions, vector populations and parasite system biology. In this review, the recent literature concerning the influences of climate change on vector-borne and non-vector-borne parasitic diseases was explored. A primary objective was to clarify the underlying mechanisms of these epidemiological shifts and their impact on disease dynamics and transmission behaviors. Furthermore, strategies for climate change mitigation to minimize anticipated consequences on human health were proposed. This review aims to offer a comprehensive understanding of the complex relationship between climate change, ecosystem dynamics, and the epidemiology of parasitic diseases affecting human. | ||||
