The study shows alarming results; as a result, there is an urgent need for action.
'Hieraus' is a pronominal adverb made up of 'hier' (here/this) and 'aus' (from/out of). It literally means 'from this' and refers to previously mentioned information.

'Hieraus' is often used in fixed combinations that introduce a logical conclusion. Typical phrases are 'hieraus ergibt sich' (this results in), 'hieraus folgt' (it follows from this), and 'hieraus lässt sich schließen' (one can conclude from this).
