CVD deaths stands for the deaths for cerebrovascular diseases. PreAvg, PreMax, and PreMin stand for the daily average, maximum, and minimum atmospheric pressure, respectively. TemAvg, TemMax, and TemMin stand for the daily average, maximum, and minimum temperature, respectively. HumAvg and HumMin stand for the daily average and minimum humidity measured as percentage. RainVol stands for the daily rain volume. Windspd, WindMax, and WindExt are daily average, maximum, and extreme wind speed, respectively. SD stands for standard deviation. Q1 and Q3 stand for the first and third quartiles. β stands for regression coefficient for the variable in generalized linear regression model, accompanied by SE (standard error) and p value
