Cumulative odds ratios estimated for daily stroke cases (95% confidence interval) associated with extreme heat exposure during the night [97.5th percentile of hot night excess (HNE) distribution] for the overall study period and the periods 2006–12 and 2013–20
Entire period | 2006–12 | 2013–20 | P-valuea | |
---|---|---|---|---|
All cases | 1.14 (1.01–1.32) | 0.99 (0.91–1.08) | 1.33 (1.18–1.50) | .03 |
Haemorrhagic strokes | 1.04 (0.83–1.35) | 0.98 (0.85–1.15) | 1.21 (1.02, 1.48) | .48 |
Ischaemic strokes and TIA | 1.16 (1.02–1.35) | 0.99 (0.91–1.09) | 1.32 (1.16–1.49) | .03 |
TIA, transient ischaemic attack.
