Note. *P<0.05; cold effect presents relative risk for per 1 °C decrease from 25th percentile temperature to 1^st percentile of temperature; hot effect presents relative risk for per 1 °C increase from 75^th percentile temperature to 99^th percentile of temperature; low education: primary school or lower; high education: secondary or higher.
