Table S1.

The relative risk (RR) of heat effects on AMI hospital admissions in hot weather period by gender, age, and area.

Heat Effect a
Lag b RR (95% CI)
All 0 1.05 (1.00–1.11) *
Gender
Male 1 1.03 (0.97–1.10)
Female 0 1.10 (1.01–1.20) *
Age
<75 years 0 1.02 (0.96–1.08)
≥75 years 0 1.12 (1.01–1.24) *
Area
Urban 0 1.03 (0.96–1.11)
Rural 0 1.04 (0.99–1.16)

CI: Confidence interval; Models adjusted for calendar year, day of the week, precipitation, humidity, sea-level pressure, and air pollutants (PM10, O3, NO2) as spline functions and considering the annual population size as the offset variable; a Temperature increase of 1 °C above the threshold maximum temperature (33.5 °C) in hot weather (June–August). Considering duration of heat wave in model; b Lags of 0, 1, 2–3, 4–7, 8–14, 15–21, 22–28; * p < 0.05.
