Abstract

Objective: This study evaluated the effects of extreme temperatures on hospital admissions for respiratory diseases (RDs) in a semi-arid region in the Northwest of China.

Methods: Distributed lag nonlinear model was constructed, and stratified analysis by gender and age was performed.

Results: The exposure-response curve between temperature and RD hospital admissions was almost W-shaped. Either extremely cold temperatures or moderately cold temperatures presented a short-term acute harmful effect, and the relative risks were higher among males (1.976, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.773-2.203; 1.242, 95% CI: 1.203-1.282) and the elderly (2.363, 95% CI: 1.724-3.240; 1.267, 95% CI: 1.154-1.390). Both extreme and moderately hot temperatures had higher risks among females (2.040, 95% CI: 1.815-2.292; 1.328, 95% CI: 1.276-1.381).

Conclusions: The relationship between air temperature and RD hospital admissions was nonlinear. Vulnerable populations varied according to extreme temperature conditions.

环境温度对西北半干旱区郊区农村呼吸系统疾病住院率的影响

目的:研究西北半干旱区极端气温对呼吸道疾病住院率的影响。方法:建立分布滞后非线性模型，按性别、年龄进行分层分析。结果:温度与RD住院率之间的暴露-反应曲线近似为w型。极低温和中低温均出现短期急性危害效应，男性相对危险度较高(1.976,95%可信区间[CI]: 1.773-2.203;1.242, 95% CI: 1.203-1.282)和老年人(2.363,95% CI: 1.724-3.240;1.267, 95% ci: 1.154-1.390)。极端高温和中等高温在女性中都有较高的风险(2.040,95% CI: 1.815-2.292;1.328, 95% ci: 1.276-1.381)。结论:气温与RD住院率呈非线性关系。脆弱人群根据极端温度条件而变化。
