Extended Data Fig. 1: Disease differences in the relative risk of extreme heat versus extreme cold in cities in different regions.
From: Temperature-related hospitalization burden under climate change
RRs of hospital admissions at the 95th (a) and 5th (b) percentile temperatures for five different disease categories—circulatory, respiratory, endocrine/metabolic, psychiatric, and genitourinary diseases—across 21 provincial capital cities in China. The top panel displays the RRs of extremely high temperatures (95th percentile), whereas the bottom panel shows the RRs of extremely low temperatures (5th percentile). Each point represents the estimated RRs for a specific disease category, providing a detailed analysis of how extreme temperatures impact hospital admissions for different health conditions.
