大多数先前调查极寒对健康影响的研究都仅限于温度本身。只有少数研究评估了人口脆弱性并比较了各种天气指标。本文的研究旨在评估寒冷天气对缺血性心脏病，特别是急性心肌梗死（AMI）的住院率的影响，并研究天气因素和人口统计学对AMI的潜在交互影响。作者发现，冬季极低的普遍视温与AMI风险增加有关，特别是在lag4-lag6期间。某些人群，如老年人、男性、有医疗补助保险的人、生活在温暖地区的人以及PM2.5浓度高的地区的人，比其他人群更容易受到冷心肌梗塞的影响。
Most prior research investigating the health effects of extreme cold has been limited to temperature alone. Only a few studies have assessed population vulnerability and compared various weather indicators. The study described in this article intended to evaluate the effects of cold weather on hospital admissions due to ischemic heart disease, especially acute myocardial infarction (AMI), and to examine the potential interactive effects between weather factors and demographics on AMI. The authors found that extremely low universal apparent temperature in winter was associated with increased risk of AMI, especially during lag4-lag6. Certain demographic groups such as the elderly, males, people with Medicaid insurance, people living in warmer areas, and areas with high PM2.5 concentration showed higher vulnerabilities to cold-AMI effects than other groups.
