Figure 3.
Estimated RRs and 95% CIs between maximum temperature at lag 2 and pediatric respiratory outcomes stratified by individual factors. Figure 3a represents associations between maximum temperature (Tmax) at lag 2 and pediatric asthma emergency department (ED) visits across individual factors for a change from 27°C to 32°C. Figure 3c shows the non-linear effects of Tmax at lag 2 on pediatric asthma ED visits across individual factors by graphing associations for a given temperature relative to 27°C. Figure 3b and 3d represent associations between Tmax at lag 2 and pediatric respiratory disease ED visits across individual factors for a given change in Tmax relative to 27°C. * indicates significant statistical difference (two-sided P < 0.05) from referent group (i.e. female sex, white race, or private insurance) and § indicates P = 0.06 for test of significant difference from referent group.
