Ischemic stroke hospital admission associated with ambient temperature in Jinan, China.
<h4>Background</h4>This study estimated the effects of ambient temperature and relative humidity on hospital admissions for ischemic stroke during 1990-2009 in Jinan, China.<h4>Methods</h4>To account for possible delayed effects and harvesting effect, we examined the impact o...

Stratified analyses were also done for summer and winter.<h4>Results</h4>A total of 1,908 ischemic stroke hospital admissions were observed between 1990 and 2009. We found a strong non-linear acute effect of daily temperatures on ischemic stroke hospital admission. With the mean temperature 15°C as the reference, the relative risk (RR) was 1.43 (95% confidence interval (CI): 1.10-1.85) for 0°C daily temperature on the same day, and 0.43 (95% CI: 0.31-0.59) for 30°C daily temperature on the same day, respectively.
