    Heat effects on mortality in 15 European cities

  • Original language description

    Epidemiologic studies show that high temperatures are related to mortality, but little is known about the exposure-response function and the lagged effect of heat. We report the associations between daily maximum apparent temperature and daily deaths during the warm season in 15 European cities. METHODS: The city-specific analyses were based on generalized estimating equations and the city-specific results were combined in a Bayesian random effects meta-analysis. We specified distributed lag models in studying the delayed effect of exposure. Time-varying coefficient models were used to check the assumption of a constant heat effect over the warm season. RESULTS: The city-specific exposure-response functions have a V shape, with a change-point that varied among cities. The meta-analytic estimate of the threshold was 29.4 degrees C for Mediterranean cities and 23.3 degrees C for north-continental cities. The estimated overall change in all natural mortality associated with a 1 degrees C

    Vliv vysoké teploty vzduchu na úmrtnost obyvatelstva v 15 evropských městech

  • Czech description

    Epidemiologické studie prokazují , že vysoké teploty vzduchu mají vliv na úmrtnost. Je však zatím málo známo o souvislosti mezi teplotou ovzduší a úmrtností. Proto byla ve studii sledována asociace mezi denními maximy teploty a denní mortalitou v obdobíteplých měsíců roku v 15ti evropských městech. Byl vytvořen lag model pro analýzu zpožďujícího efektu mortality po teplotním excesu. V dané studii při užití uvedené statistické metody byl prokázán statisticky významný efekt nárůstu mortality během následujícího týdne v souvislosti s horkými dny v období od června do srpna.
