A study of temperature variability on admissions and deaths for cardiovascular diseases in Northwestern China.

ABSTRACT:

Objective

To explore the effect of temperature variability (TV) on admissions and deaths for cardiovascular diseases (CVDs).

Method

The admissions data of CVDs were collected in 4 general hospitals in Jinchang City, Gansu Province from 2013 to 2016. The monitoring data of death for CVDs from 2013 to 2017 were collected through the Jinchang City Center for Disease Control and Prevention. Distributed lag nonlinear model (DLNM) was combined to analyze the effects of TV (daily temperature variability (DTV) and hourly temperature variability (HTV)) on the admissions and deaths for CVDs after adjusting confounding effects. Stratified analysis was conducted by age and gender. Then the attribution risk of TV was evaluated.

Results

There was a broadly linear correlation betwee
