摘要

本研究探讨了安徽省巢湖市、雨山区和天长市的温度与心脑血管疾病死亡之间的关系。从中国疾病预防控制中心收集2008-2011年这3个城市(区)居民的心脑血管疾病日死亡资料,采用Possion广义叠加模型研究了温度与心脑血管疾病死亡之间的暴露-反应曲线关系,并以最适宜温度为参照,分别估计高温和低温情况下气温每上升或下降1 °C,对应的心脑血管疾病死亡人数上升的百分比。结果显示,3个城市心脑血管疾病死亡与温度之间的暴露-反应曲线为J-型,即存在一个最适宜温度,心脑血管疾病的死亡风险在该最适宜温度达到最低,巢湖市、雨山区、天长市的最适宜温度分别为29.0°C、26.6°C、26.9°C。当温度低于最适宜温度时,温度每降低1 °C,巢湖市、雨山区和天长市的心脑血管疾病死亡人数分别增加1.06%(95%CI:0.39%~1.74%)、2.18%(95%CI:1.56%~2.81%)、0.89%(95%CI:-0.11%~1.90%);当温度高于最适宜温度时,温度每升高1°C,3城市的心脑血管患者死亡人数分别增加2.92%(95%CI:-2.19%~8.30%)、4.87%(95%CI:-0.11%~10.10%)、2.06%(95%CI:-2.57%~6.91%)。研究结果表明,低温和高温均会对安徽省城市居民的心脑血管疾病死亡产生影响,且温度对心脑血管疾病死亡的影响还存在地域差异。因此,在研究温度对心脑血管疾病死亡的影响、制定相关的防御措施时,都需因地制宜地进行分析。

Abstract

The objectives of this study were to estimate the effects of temperature on cardiovascular mortality in three cities of Anhui Province from 2008 to 2011, including Chaohu city, Yushan district of Ma’anshan city and Tianchang city. A separate Poisson generalized additive model (GAM) was fitted on a daily basis to explore the relationship between cardiovascular mortality and temperature for each city. The model used smooth functions to model the nonlinear effects of temperature and humidity on cardiovascular mortality, and to take control for the seasonal factor using the calendar time variable. A J-shaped relationship between cardiovascular mortality and temperature was observed for each city, indicating that an increasing trend at high or low temperature condition is associated with an increase in cardiovascular mortality. The threshold temperatures were 29.0°C, 26.6°C and 26.9°C for Chaohu city, Yushan district and Tianchang city, respectively. The percentage increase in cardiovascular mortality for Chaohu city, Yushan district and Tianchang city were 1.06% (95%CI: 0.39%-1.74%), 2.18% (95% CI: 1.56%~2.81%) and 0.89% (95% CI: -0.11%~1.90%) respectively, with a decrease of 1°C below the threshold temperature. And the percentage increase were 2.92% (95%CI: -2.19%~8.30%), 4.87% (95%CI: -0.11%~10.10%) and 2.06% (95%CI: -2.57%~6.91%) respectively, with an increase of 1°C above the threshold temperature. The effects of temperature on cardiovascular mortality are heterogeneous across cities, which suggest that preventive steps or public health programs should take regional differences into consideration.

1 引言

心脑血管疾病是目前人类死亡的首要原因,全世界每年大约有1200万人死于心脑血管疾病,占总死亡人数的25%,中国每年也约有260万人死于心脑血管疾病,位居所有死亡病因的第一位[1]。心脑血管疾病死亡不仅与饮食习惯、缺乏运动等有关,也受气候因素的影响。随着全球气候的变暖,温度与心脑血管疾病死亡之间的关系受到了越来越多的关注[2]
欧洲、美国和澳大利亚等发达国家对温度和心脑血管疾病死亡之间的关系进行了研究[3-7],结果表明,温度与心脑血管疾病死亡之间的关系为非线性,高温和低温均会增加心脑血管疾病的发病和死亡风险,并且温度变化对心脑血管疾病死亡的影响存在明显的地域差异。Curriero等人在研究美国东部11个城市温度对死亡风险的影响中提出,低纬度地区的最适宜温度(即死亡风险最低时对应的温度)较高,并且低温对死亡风险的影响在低纬度地区比高纬度地区强,高温的影响在高纬度地区比低纬度地区强[4]。这主要与气候的分布有关,较低纬度地区夏季炎热,人群长期生活于温度较高的环境中,从生理和行为上适应了高温环境;而较高纬度地区冬季寒冷,该地区人群也由于长期生活于低温环境中而适应了低温[8]
近几年,国内也出现了一些关于温度与心脑血管疾病死亡之间关系的研究,包括南京[9]、武汉[10]、石家庄[2]、兰州[11]和长沙[12]。中国地域辽阔,各地的经济条件[4]、医疗设施、人口结构[5,12]存在较大的差异,因此,温度对心脑血管疾病死亡的影响也存在地域差异。另外,国内的研究多局限于单个城市,并且不同研究在不同地区所选用的模型、参数等不一致,容易出现研究结果之间的差异,因此,同时开展多个地区的研究非常必要。
安徽省位于中国东南部,地处暖温带与亚热带过渡地区,四季分明,冬冷夏热,且地处长江下游、淮河中游,经济上属中国中东部经济区,因此,对安徽省进行调查研究可为江淮流域地区心脑血管疾病的爆发,以及医疗预防和保护措施的及时性提供预警系统和科学依据。
本研究选用广义叠加模型研究温度对心脑血管疾病死亡的影响,即采用非参数拟合模型,并利用可叠加原理与平滑函数,在不用预先假设变量之间关系曲线的形状,对变量进行拟合[13],研究气候因子与死亡人数、死亡率之间的关系[4,11-14]。Curriero等[4]利用广义叠加模型研究了美国东部11个城市的温度与全体死亡人数、心脑血管血管疾病死亡人数之间的关系,结果表明,大多数城市的温度与心脑血管疾病死亡之间的关系为J-型。Huang等[12]利用广义叠加模型对长沙地区的研究显示,温度与心脑血管疾病死亡之间的关系为W-型;Kan等[14]和陈美池[11]分别对上海市和兰州市的研究表明,温度与心脑血管疾病死亡之间的关系为V-型。由上可见,温度与心脑血管疾病死亡之间的关系存在明显的地域差异。

2 研究区地理背景与病源数据

(1)研究区地理分布如图1所示。位于31°48′47″~32°57′50″N、117°25′40″~118°57′40″E范围内,地处暖温带与亚热带过渡地区,气候温暖湿润,夏季炎热、冬季寒冷。
(2)心脑血管疾病死亡数据和气候数据
本研究从中国疾病预防控制中心(Chinese Center for Disease Control and Prevention,CDC)的死因监测点系统(Death Surveillance Points System, DSP)收集2008年1月1日至2011年12月31日期间巢湖市、马鞍山市雨山区和天长市的居民死亡资料。该死因监测点系统建立于1978年,采用分层聚类随机抽样的方法选取具有代表性的区县进行监测,并采用标准联合国综合指数对其数据的完整性和准确性进行评价。其监测结果具有良好的完整性和准确性,并对全国城市和全国农村均具有良好的代表性[15-16]。收集的死亡资料包含死者性别、年龄、常住地址编码、根本死因、国际疾病伤害及死因分类标准(ICD-10)编码和死亡日期。本研究收集了研究区的心脑血管疾病死亡(ICD: I00-I99)人口资料,包括冠心病、脑血管病、周围血管病、心脏病等,并通过数据整理得到3个城市每日的心脑血管疾病死亡人数。

图1 3个研究城市(区)的地理位置分布

同期的气象数据从中国气象科学数据共享服务网(http://cdc.nmic.cn/)提取,包括日均气温、日最高气温、日最低气温、日均相对湿度。本研究一共提取了安徽省和位于安徽省东边的江苏省内一共30个气象站点的数据。从图1可看出,雨山区和天长市位于安徽省东部边缘地区,因此提取安徽省东部的气象数据,以便更准确地计算雨山区和天长市的气象因子数据。然后,采用反距离权重(Inverse Distance Weighted,IDW)插值和分区统计(zonal statistics)方法计算各个城市的日均气温、日最高气温、日最低气温和日均相对湿度。IDW和分区统计方法均在ArcGIS10.1中实现。

3 温度对心脑血管疾病死亡影响的 广义叠加模型分析

以往研究表明,高温和低温均会增加心脑血管疾病死亡的风险。其中,低温的影响相对比较缓慢并且持续时间较长,并在滞后3天左右达到最大[17];高温对心脑血管疾病死亡的影响快速而且强烈,通常持续3~4 d[12,17]。因此,本文主要研究3日温度对心脑血管疾病死亡的影响。

3.1 温度与心脑血管疾病死亡之间的关系

(1)心脑血管疾病死亡与3日平均温度之间的暴露-反应曲线的模型分析
首先,用广义叠加模型探索每个城市的心脑血管疾病死亡的相对风险(Relative Risk,RR)与3日平均温度之间的暴露-反应曲线。广义叠加模型是一种非线性模型,可在不用预先假设变量之间关系曲线的形状,对变量进行拟合[13],因此,该模型常用于变量之间关系未知情况下探索变量之间的关系曲线,或者在模型中模拟变量之间的非线性关系。以往研究表明,温度、相对湿度等气象因子与心脑血管疾病死亡之间的关系为非线性[7,11-12,14],因此,本研究选用了广义叠加模型探索温度与心脑血管疾病死亡之间的暴露-反应曲线关系。
本研究共收集了3个温度指标(日最高温度、日平均温度和日最低温度),并以赤池信息量准则(Akaike’s Information Criterion,AIC)[18]为标准选取最合适的温度指标。AIC是衡量统计模型拟合优良性的一种标准,计算公式为:
AIC = 2 k - 2 ln ( L ) (1)
式中,k是参数的数量;L是似然函数。AIC方法寻找可最好地解释数据但包含最少自由参数的模型,所以优先考虑的模型对应AIC值最小的一个。本研究分别以日最高温度、日最低温度和日平均温度构建模型,并计算和比较其对应的AIC值。结果表明,以日平均温度作为温度指标构建的模型对应的AIC值最小,因此,本研究选用日平均温度作为模型中的温度指标用于衡量温度对心脑血管疾病死亡的影响。
(2)低温和高温分别对心脑血管疾病死亡的影响
通过拟合心脑血管疾病死亡与温度之间的暴露-反应曲线确定最适宜温度,即心脑血管疾病死亡风险最低时对应的温度。
① 通过观察心脑血管疾病死亡的暴露-反应曲线初步确定最适宜温度的范围;然后,在该范围内以0.1 °C为间距迭代计算以不同最适宜温度值构建模型的AIC值,选择最小AIC值对应的温度作为最适宜温度[7,12];
② 以最适宜温度为参照,分别计算各个地区的低温(温度低于最适宜温度)和高温(温度高于最适宜温度)对心脑血管疾病死亡的影响。另外,心脑血管疾病死亡存在明显的季节波动,而且还在一定程度上受相对湿度的影响,因此,在模型中采用平滑函数来控制季节波动和相对湿度的非线性影响。最终的Poisson广义叠加模型的形式为[19-20]
logE ( Y ) = β 0 + β 1 × T + β 2 ( T - ς ) + + s ( time , 7 × year ) + j = 1 p s ( x j , 3 ) + λ × DOW (2)
式中, ( T - ς ) + = m ax { T - ς , 0 } ; Y 表示心脑血管患者死亡人数;s()表示平滑函数,用于模拟变量之间的非线性关系; T 表示3日平均温度; ς 为最适宜温度,低于 ς 时为低温,高于 ς 时为高温;time表示日期变量,用于控制长期趋势(如人口变化、生活习惯变化、医疗设施的变化及季节性波动等[7,14])。参考以往相关研究[7, 12, 21]选择“7 × 研究年限”为日期变量time的自由度; x j 表示其他混杂因素(如相对湿度),这些混杂因子的自由度选择以AIC为标准,依次以3-10作为混杂因子的自由度分别构建模型,计算并比较以不同自由度为参数构建的模型的AIC值,选取AIC值最小的模型对应的自由度,最终选定3作为混杂因子变量的自由度;DOW(day of the week)代表观察日期为星期几的一个哑变量,用于控制星期几效应。
因此,当温度低于最适宜温度 ς 时(低温环境),模型为:
logE ( Y ) = β 0 + β 1 × T + s ( time , 7 × year ) + j = 1 p s ( x j , 3 ) + λ × DOW (3)
当温度高于最适宜温度 ς 时(高温环境),模型为:
logE ( Y ) = β 0 - β 2 ς + ( β 1 + β 2 ) × T + s ( time , 7 × year ) + j = 1 p s ( x j , 3 ) + λ × DOW (4)
③ 用心脑血管疾病死亡人数的百分比变化(percent change)来定量描述低温和高温对心脑血管疾病死亡的影响,即当温度低于最适宜温度 ς 时,温度每降低1 °C,心脑血管疾病死亡人数增加的百分比,或当温度高于最适宜温度 ς 时,温度每升高1 °C,心脑血管疾病死亡人数增加的百分比。计算公式为:
percent c h ange = ( exp ( β ) - 1 ) × 100 % (5)
当温度低于最适宜温度时, β 值等于式(2)中的 β 1 ;温度高于最适宜温度时, β 等于式(2)中的 β 1 + β 2
本研究采用R 3.0.1软件的“mgcv”包来构建广义叠加模型。

3.2 温度对心脑血管疾病死亡影响的结果分析

巢湖市、雨山区、天长市在2008-2011年间的心脑血管疾病日死亡人数和气象因素的基本情况见表1。其中,巢湖市和雨山区的纬度比天长市更低,日平均温度更高。巢湖市、雨山区、天长市在2008-2011年间的心脑血管疾病死亡人数分别为7386、1635、3897人,合计12 918人。

(1)气温与心脑血管疾病死亡之间的暴露-反应关系曲线
图2展示了3个市(区)的心脑血管疾病死亡与温度之间的暴露-反应关系曲线,其中,横坐标表示3日平均温度,纵坐标表示心脑血管疾病死亡相对风险的对数。从图2可看出,安徽省城市地区的心脑血管疾病死亡与温度之间关系呈非线性,其暴露-反应曲线为J-型,即心脑血管疾病死亡的相对风险会在某个温度达到最低点,该温度称为最适宜温度或阈值温度,当温度高于该最适宜温度时,心脑血管疾病死亡的相对风险随着温度的升高而增加;温度低于该最适宜温度时,心脑血管疾病死亡的相对风险随着温度的降低而增加。但在不同地区,心脑血管疾病死亡和温度之间的暴露-反应关系曲线的具体形状不同。首先,3个城市的最适宜温度虽然都介于20~30 °C之间,但最适宜温度值却不同,巢湖市的最适宜温度要比雨山区和天长市的最适宜温度高。其次,在最适宜温度两侧,心脑血管疾病死亡风险随着温度变化的斜率不同,在最适宜温度左侧,雨山区的暴露-反应关系的斜率最大,其次是巢湖市,天长市的斜率最小;在最适宜温度右侧,巢湖市和雨山区的暴露-反应关系斜率比较明显,而天长市的暴露-反应关系曲线比较平缓。
(2)高温和低温分别对心脑血管疾病死亡影响的结果分析
表2为3个市(区)的最适宜温度,以及低温和高温分别对心脑血管疾病死亡影响结果。表2显示,3个市(区)的最适宜温度,以及低温和高温对心脑血管疾病死亡的影响程度均存在地域差异。最适宜温度分布在26.6~29.0 °C之间,且高温对心脑血管疾病死亡的影响比低温大。其中,马鞍山市雨山区是受低温和高温影响最大的地区,其次是巢湖市,天长市受低温影响最小。
(3)温度对老年人口心脑血管疾病死亡的影响
表2进一步研究了温度对老年人口(65岁以上人口)心脑血管疾病致死的结果。从表2可看出,老年人口的心脑血管疾病死亡的最适宜温度分布在26.7~29.0 °C之间,与全人群的最适宜温度基本一致。在巢湖市,温度(包括高温和低温)对老年人口的心脑血管疾病致死亡率更大,而在雨山区,温度(包括高温和低温)对全人群的心脑血管疾病致死亡率更大;在天长市,低温对老年人群的致死亡率更大,高温对全人群的致死亡率越大。

4 讨论

结果表明,温度与心脑血管疾病死亡之间呈非线性关系,为J-型,表明低温和高温均可增加心脑血管疾病死亡的风险,与之前国内外的研究结论一致[7,12,20]。3个城市的最适宜温度介于26.6~29.0 °C之间,Liu等对北京地区的研究发现,温度与心脑血管疾病死亡之间的关系为V-型,最适宜温度为21.3 °C,本研究结果与Curriero等提出的低纬度地区最适宜温度较高的结果一致。较低纬度地区夏季炎热时间较长,而且温度较高,人群受生理和行为适应性的影响,对高温的适应性较好。虽然同属江淮流域,但各城市的暴露-反应曲线的形状却不同(图2),且最适宜温度、低温对高温的影响程度也存在差异,可能反映了城市间社会经济水平、医疗卫生水平、人口结构特征,以及人群适应能力的差异。
图2表2可看出,低温对心脑血管疾病死亡产生影响的温度范围大,在最适宜温度左侧很大的低温范围都对心脑血管疾病死亡有影响,高温对心脑血管疾病死亡产生影响的温度范围较小,巢湖市、雨山区和天长市的低温影响范围分别为-4.4~29.0 °C、-4.4~26.6 °C和-5.8~26.9 °C,高温影响范围分别为29.0~33.6 °C、26.6~34.2 °C和26.9~33.9 °C。同时,从表2可看出,巢湖市、雨山区和天长市的低温影响心脑血管疾病死亡百分比变化分别为1.06%、2.18%和0.89%,高温影响心脑血管疾病死亡百分比变化分别为2.92%、4.87%和2.06%,3个市(区)中高温的影响程度要大于低温。近几十年的研究结果表明,中国自20世纪初以来,升温过程基本是确定的[22],约平均每10 a上升0.28 °C[23],而且继续呈现出上升趋势[2],对心脑血管疾病患者造成巨大的潜在危险,因此,研究温度对心脑血管疾病死亡的影响不仅要关注低温,同时也需研究高温对心脑血管疾病死亡的影响。

全部人口 巢湖市 29.0 1.06(0.39~1.74) 2.92(-2.19~8.30)
雨山区 26.6 2.18(1.56~2.81) 4.87(-0.11~10.10)
天长市 26.9 0.89(-0.11~1.90) 2.06(-2.57~6.91)
65岁以上人口 巢湖市 29.0 1.12(0.41~1.83) 3.41(-2.09~9.23)
雨山区 26.7 2.07(1.37~2.78) 3.57(-2.05~9.52)
天长市 26.9 0.82(0.23~1.87) 2.97(-1.99~8.18)
本研究对老年人口的研究结果显示,巢湖市、雨山区和天长市老年人口对应的最适宜温度,分别为29.0、26.7和26.9°C,与全体人口的29.0、26.6和26.9°C没有明显差异,温度对老年人口心脑血管疾病死亡的影响与对全体人群的影响比较相似,可能原因有:(1)研究地区的心脑血管疾病死亡人数中,老年人口占了绝大多数,高达85.67%,其中,巢湖市、雨山区、天长市的心脑血管疾病死亡人口中,老年人口分别占比为85.89%、82.75%、86.48%;(2)虽然老年人口的身体机能比较脆弱,通过自身调节适应温度变化的能力较差,但在极端气候环境下老年人口一般都待在室内,且有暖气或空调等设备对室内温度进行控制和调整,因此,受极端气温的影响较小,而年轻人却因为工作等原因经常在室外,直接暴露在极端高温或极端低温等环境中,因此更容易受到影响。
许多研究提出了一些假设,从人体机理的角度来解释高温和低温对心脑血管疾病患者的影响。在高温环境下,人体会通过自动扩大皮肤血管和出汗等办法来平衡人体的温度,也因此导致了人体生理变化(如血液黏度和心量排出的增加),这些生理变化进一步导致脱水、低血压、内皮细胞损伤等[20,24]。然而,人们对低温增加心脑血管患者死亡风险的机理了解较少[5,24],一般认为,当人体暴露在低温环境中时,交感神经系统会提高儿茶酚胺水平和皮肤血管的血流量来减少温度流失,因此,导致血管收缩、血压升高、血小板凝聚、血红细胞数量、血浆胆固醇、血浆纤维蛋白原等的增加[20,24]。Balloux等的研究发现,生活在温度较低地区的人群体内的线粒体的多样性低于生活在温度较高地区的人群[25],表明温度可能对人体线粒体DNA序列的形成有影响。线粒体在人体心脑血管系统的正常运作,以及心脑血管疾病的发展过程中扮演着重要角色[26],因此,全球气候变化也许会通过影响人体的线粒体DNA序列来影响心脑血管疾病。对于气候变化对遗传多样性的影响,未来还需更深入的研究。
同时,本研究中也存在一些局限性。以往有研究表明,空气污染物对人体健康也有影响,但由于本研究无法获取研究期间的空气污染物数据,因此没有加入污染物资料,有待今后进一步的研究完善。

Braga A L F, Zanobetti A, Schwartz J. The effect of weather on respiratory and cardiovascular deaths in 12 U.S. cities[J]. Environmental Health Perspectives, 2002,110(9):859-863.We carried out time-series analyses in 12 U.S. cities to estimate both the acute effects and the lagged influence of weather on respiratory and cardiovascular disease (CVD) deaths. We fit generalized additive Poisson regressions for each city using nonparametric smooth functions to control for long time trend, season, and barometric pressure. We also controlled for day of the week. We estimated the effect and the lag structure of both temperature and humidity based on a distributed lag model. In cold cities, both high and low temperatures were associated with increased CVD deaths. In general, the effect of cold temperatures persisted for days, whereas the effect of high temperatures was restricted to the day of the death or the day before. For myocardial infarctions (MI), the effect of hot days was twice as large as the cold-day effect, whereas for all CVD deaths the hot-day effect was five times smaller than the cold-day effect. The effect of hot days included some harvesting, because we observed a deficit of deaths a few days later, which we did not observe for the cold-day effect. In hot cities, neither hot nor cold temperatures had much effect on CVD or pneumonia deaths. However, for MI and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease deaths, we observed lagged effects of hot temperatures (lags 4-6 and lags 3 and 4, respectively). We saw no clear pattern for the effect of humidity. In hierarchical models, greater variance of summer and winter temperature was associated with larger effects for hot and cold days, respectively, on respiratory deaths.

BMC Public Health, 2009,9:19.Cold spells were defined as periods of days on which air temperature does not exceed -3.5°C. Days on which mortality was affected by epidemics of influenza/acute respiratory infections were identified and omitted from the analysis. Excess cardiovascular mortality was determined after the long-term changes and the seasonal cycle in mortality had been removed. Excess mortality during and after cold spells was examined in individual age groups and genders.Cold spells were associated with positive mean excess cardiovascular mortality in all age groups (25–59, 60–69, 70–79 and 80+ years) and in both men and women. The relative mortality effects were most pronounced and most direct in middle-aged men (25–59 years), which contrasts with majority of studies on cold-related mortality in other regions. The estimated excess mortality during the severe cold spells in January 1987 (+274 cardiovascular deaths) is comparable to that attributed to the most severe heat wave in this region in 1994.The results show that cold stress has a considerable impact on mortality in central Europe, representing a public health threat of an importance similar to heat waves. The elevated mortality risks in men aged 25–59 years may be related to occupational exposure of large numbers of men working outdoors in winter. Early warnings and preventive measures based on weather forecast and targeted on the susceptible parts of the population may help mitigate the effects of cold spells and save lives.Morbidity and mortality of a population are influenced by a large number of factors, one of them being meteorological conditions. In mid-latitudes, the most direct effects of weather on human health are observed during and after summer heat waves [1-8]. Cold-related mortality, although much less understood than heat-related mortality, is another example of the effects of weather on the human health. Increases in mortality with decreasing temperatures in winter have been reported in many regions, mainly in

American Journal of Respiratory and Critical Care Medicine, 2009,179:383-389.Abstract RATIONALE: Episode analyses of heat waves have documented a comparatively higher impact on mortality than on morbidity (hospital admissions) in European cities. The evidence from daily time series studies is scarce and inconsistent. OBJECTIVES: To evaluate the impact of high environmental temperatures on hospital admissions during April to September in 12 European cities participating in the Assessment and Prevention of Acute Health Effects of Weather Conditions in Europe (PHEWE) project. METHODS: For each city, time series analysis was used to model the relationship between maximum apparent temperature (lag 0-3 days) and daily hospital admissions for cardiovascular, cerebrovascular, and respiratory causes by age (all ages, 65-74 age group, and 75+ age group), and the city-specific estimates were pooled for two geographical groupings of cities. MEASUREMENTS AND MAIN RESULTS: For respiratory admissions, there was a positive association that was heterogeneous between cities. For a 1 degrees C increase in maximum apparent temperature above a threshold, respiratory admissions increased by +4.5% (95% confidence interval, 1.9-7.3) and +3.1% (95% confidence interval, 0.8-5.5) in the 75+ age group in Mediterranean and North-Continental cities, respectively. In contrast, the association between temperature and cardiovascular and cerebrovascular admissions tended to be negative and did not reach statistical significance. CONCLUSIONS: High temperatures have a specific impact on respiratory admissions, particularly in the elderly population, but the underlying mechanisms are poorly understood. Why high temperature increases cardiovascular mortality but not cardiovascular admissions is also unclear. The impact of extreme heat events on respiratory admissions is expected to increase in European cities as a result of global warming and progressive population aging.

Yu W, Wu W, Mengersen K, et al.Time course of temperature effects on cardiovascular mortality in Brisbane, Australia[J]. Heart, 2011,97:1089-1093.Abstract OBJECTIVE: To quantify the lagged effects of mean temperature on deaths from cardiovascular diseases in Brisbane, Australia. DESIGN: Polynomial distributed lag models were used to assess the percentage increase in mortality up to 30 days associated with an increase (or decrease) of 1°C above (or below) the threshold temperature. SETTING: Brisbane, Australia. PATIENTS: 2264805 cardiovascular deaths registered between 1996 and 2004. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Deaths from cardiovascular diseases. RESULTS: The results show a longer lagged effect in cold days and a shorter lagged effect in hot days. For the hot effect, a statistically significant association was observed only for lag 0-1 days. The percentage increase in mortality was found to be 3.7% (95% CI 0.4% to 7.1%) for people aged ≥65 years and 3.5% (95% CI 0.4% to 6.7%) for all ages associated with an increase of 1°C above the threshold temperature of 24°C. For the cold effect, a significant effect of temperature was found for 10-15 lag days. The percentage estimates for older people and all ages were 3.1% (95% CI 0.7% to 5.7%) and 2.8% (95% CI 0.5% to 5.1%), respectively, with a decrease of 1°C below the threshold temperature of 24°C. CONCLUSIONS: The lagged effects lasted longer for cold temperatures but were apparently shorter for hot temperatures. There was no substantial difference in the lag effect of temperature on mortality between all ages and those aged ≥65 years in Brisbane, Australia.

Gosling S M, Lowe J A, McGregor G R, et al. Associations between elevated atmospheric temperature and human mortality: a critical review of the literature[J]. Climate Change, 2009,92:299-341.The effects of the anomalously warm European summer of 2003 highlighted the importance of understanding the relationship between elevated atmospheric temperature and human mortality. This review is an extension of the brief evidence examining this relationship provided in the IPCC ’s Assessment Reports. A comprehensive and critical review of the literature is presented, which highlights avenues for further research, and the respective merits and limitations of the methods used to analyse the relationships. In contrast to previous reviews that concentrate on the epidemiological evidence, this review acknowledges the inter-disciplinary nature of the topic and examines the evidence presented in epidemiological, environmental health, and climatological journals. As such, present temperature–mortality relationships are reviewed, followed by a discussion of how these are likely to change under climate change scenarios. The importance of uncertainty, and methods to include it in future work, are also considered.

Iñiguez C, Ballester F, Ferrandi J, et al.Relation between temperature and mortality in thirteen Spanish cities[J]. International Journal of Environmental Research and Public Health, 2010,7:3196-3210.In this study we examined the shape of the association between temperature and mortality in 13 Spanish cities representing a wide range of climatic and socio-demographic conditions. The temperature value linked with minimum mortality (MMT) and the slopes before and after the turning point (MMT) were calculated. Most cities showed a V-shaped temperature-mortality relationship. MMTs were generally higher in cities with warmer climates. Cold and heat effects also depended on climate: effects were greater in hotter cities but lesser in cities with higher variability. The effect of heat was greater than the effect of cold. The effect of cold and MMT was, in general, greater for cardio-respiratory mortality than for total mortality, while the effect of heat was, in general, greater among the elderly.

Yang G, Hu J, Rao K Q, et al.Mortality registration and surveillance in China: History, current situation and challenges[J]. Population Health Metrics, 2005:3.Mortality statistics are key inputs for evidence based health policy at national level. Little is known of the empirical basis for mortality statistics in China which accounts for roughly one-fifth of the worlds population. An adequate description of the evolution of mortality registration in China and its current situation is important to evaluate the usability of the statistics derived from it for international epidemiology and health policy. The Chinese vital registration system currently covers 41 urban and 85 rural centres accounting for roughly 8 % of the national population. Quality of registration is better in urban than in rural areas and eastern than in western regions resulting in significant biases in the overall statistics. The Ministry of Health introduced the Disease Surveillance Point System in 1980 to generate cause specific mortality statistics from a nationally representative sample of sites. Currently the sample consists of 145 urban and rural sites covering populations from 30000 &acirc; 70000 and a total of about 1% of the national population. Causes of death are derived through a mix of medical certification and verbal autopsy procedures applied according to standard guidelines in all sites. Periodic evaluations for completeness of registration are conducted with subsequent corrections for under reporting of deaths. Results from the DSP have been used to inform health policy at national regional and global levels. There remains a need to critically validate the information on causes of death and a detailed validation exercise on these aspects is currently underway. In general such sample based mortality registration systems hold much promise as models for rapidly improving knowledge about levels and causes of mortality in other low-income populations.

Kim H, Ha J-S, Park J.High temperature, heat index, and mortality in 6 major cities in South Korea[J]. Archives of Environmental &Occupational Health, 2006,61:265-270.The authors conducted a time-series analysis to estimate the acute effects of high temperature in 6 cities in Korea and to compare thresholds of temperature on daily mortality among the cities. They examined the association between total mortality and the daily mean temperature and heat index during the summers in Korea from 1994 to 2003. The threshold temperature was estimated to be between 27.0 degrees C and 29.7 degrees C for 4 cities. For a daily mean temperature increase of 1 degrees C above the thresholds in Seoul, Daegu, Incheon, and Gwangju, estimated percentage increases in daily mortality were 16.3 (95% confidence interval [CI] = 14.2-18.4), 9.10 (CI = 5.12-13.2), 7.01 (CI = 4.42-9.66), and 6.73 (CI = 2.47-11.2), respectively. These city-specific threshold temperatures and the magnitude of the effects of hot temperature indicate that any analysis of the impact of climate change should take into account regional differences.
