However, research remains limited on the association between short-term exposure to temperature and traumatic fractures. This study aims to explore the impact of apparent temperature (AT) on emergency visits (EVs) due to traumatic fractures.<h4>Methods</h4>Based on EVs data for traumatic fractures and the contemporary meteorological data, a generalized Poisson regression model along with a distributed lag nonlinear model (DLNM) were undertaken to determine the impact of AT on traumatic fracture EVs. Subgroup analysis by gender and age and sensitivity analysis were also performed.<h4>Results</h4>A total of 25,094 EVs for traumatic fractures were included in the study. We observed a wide "J"-shaped relationship between AT andBMC public healthThe impact of apparent temperature on the emergency visits for traumatic fractures in Hangzhou, China.PMC111972632022215Tian JJi CChen JTan JLi FZhao WGao JWu BYan SWu GLi LYao WLi MZhao YNiu YLiu XQiu YPan GZhao MLi YZhu LTang XfalseThe impact of apparent temperature on the emergency visits for traumatic fractures in Hangzhou, China.<h4>Background</h4>Traumatic fractures occur frequently worldwide.
