Bold values indicated variables with chi-square p-values<0.05
Insolation Only and Temperature Only models each contain only a measure of insolation or temperature with stroke of any subtype as outcome
Insolation and Temperature model contains both measures of insolation or temperature with stroke of any subtype as outcome
Adjusted Model adds age, race, gender, rurality, education, income, neighborhood poverty, vitamin D intake, exercise, TV/computer time, medication use (aspirin, statins or anti-hypertensives), alcohol, smoking, depressive symptoms, Physical Component Summary score, and body mass index to the Insolation and Temperature Model, and controls for region through stratification
Mediation Model adds systolic blood pressure, cholesterol, diabetes, atrial fibrillation, previous transient ischemic attack, and presence of stroke symptoms without self-reported stroke at baseline to the Adjusted Model
