Main effects from a univariable analysis of relationship between 1°C fall in average temperature in °C (3-days lag period)^a and death (odds ratios [P-value]), using 28th day before and after date of death as control days

	OR	95% CI	P	OR	95% CI	P
Overall	1.011	1.007 to 1.015	<0.001	1.013	1.008 to 1.018	<0.001

↵a Based on temperatures of date of death and 3 days previous (case day), and 28th day before date of death and 3 days previous and 28th day after date of death and 3 days previous (control days).
