[The impact of temperature on cardiovascular disease deaths in 4 cities, China: a time-series study].
To estimate the effects of temperature on cardiovascular disease (CVD) deaths in 4 cities-Kunming, Changsha, Guangzhou and Zhuhai, from southern part of China. ⋯ The city-specific exposure-response functions appeared to be non-linear. Both high and cold temperatures were associated with increased CVD deaths, but the impact of low temperature was more notable. Cold effect was delayed by several days but last for a longer period than the hot effect did.
