Percentage (95% CI) of deaths attributable to cold and heat, estimated using different cut off points

SofiaLondon
Using 10th centile of two week mean temperature, 90th centile of two day mean temperature as cut off points:
Heat0.72 (0.47 to 0.96)0.44 (0.33 to 0.56)
Cold0.67 (0.22 to 1.11)1.39 (1.13 to 1.64)
Using the V model with common cut off point in both cities:
Heat1.66 (1.19 to 2.13)0.82 (0.63 to 1.01)
Cold5.75 (4.29 to 7.18)8.67 (7.82 to 9.52)
