Lag structure in the effects of extreme high temperature on OSA severity

Caption

Overall lag structure in the effects of extreme high temperature on OSA exacerbation (a), AHI (b) and MinSpO2 (c) over 0 to 7 d. The effects were calculated by comparing the extreme high temperature (30.3 ℃, the 97.5th percentile) to the referent temperature (-5.2 ℃). Solid lines = mean percent change (a) or absolute change (b and c); shaded areas = 95% confidence intervals. AHI: apnea-hypopnea index; MinSpO2: minimum oxygen saturation; OSA: obstructive sleep apnea.
