DOI: 10.1186/s12874-017-0412-7
Abstract: BackgroundRich literature has reported that there exists a nonlinear association between temperature and mortality. One important feature in the temperature-mortality association is the minimum mortality temperature (MMT). The commonly used approach for estimating the MMT… read more here.
