Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Climate-related adverse health outcomes are on the rise worldwide, and primary health care providers are at the forefront of the growing climate-health crisis. There is an urgent need for a codification of solutions and strategies for adaptation, resilience, and transformation in primary health care. This scoping review sought to answer the following research question: "What strategies are being implemented across all forms of primary health care to adapt to and address the climate crisis?" After iterative axial coding of the 94 retained papers, 15 themes emerged: community engagement; reaching vulnerable populations; transdisciplinary and intersectoral collaboration; clinical strategies; research, surveillance; pluralism; patient education; continuing education and community of practice; benefits of nature; infrastructure resilience; advocacy; conservation; redefining health; provider wellbeing; and impact of health care. It behooves primary health care practitioners, especially those within dominant systems, to advocate strategies that promote health in all systems and policies. The planetary health crisis is a health crisis. It is urgent, it is human-created, and it can be mitigated.

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
