Abstract
Separating the effects of 'extreme' and 'moderate' cold (e.g. temperatures between approximately 8-9â¯Â°C and 18â¯Â°C in the UK) could help the interpretation of studies quoting attributable mortality burdens. However there remains the general dilemma of whether it is better to use a lower cold threshold below which we are more certain of a causal relationship, but at the risk of under-estimating deaths attributable to cold.
