D-GRG (γ), Deng grey relational gradient; BA-GRG (ϵ±), bidirectional absolute grey relational gradient; SS-GRG (p), second synthetic grey relational gradient; COPD, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease; IHD, ischemic heart disease. Inverse relationships are indicated by values enclosed in round parenthesis. SS-GRG is estimated without the use of signs. Response variable: mortality from asthma, COPD, stroke, and IHD.
