modTempEff (version 1.5.2)

coef.modTempEff: Extract DL coefficients from a `modTempEff' object

Description

The function extracts the estimated coefficients of the DL curves for cold and/or heat effect.

Usage

"coef"(object, which = c("cold", "heat"), L, ...)

Arguments

object

the "modTempEff" object returned by tempeff.

which

which DL curve should be returned?

L

the number of DL coefficients required. `L+1' coefficients for lags 0 to L are returned.

...

additional arguments (ignored).

Value

A matrix with DL coefficients. Each row corresponds to a specific lag.

Details

The resulting estimates, returned as a matrix, are DL coefficients for the cold and/or the heat effect. Each coefficient at specific lag represents the log relative risk (of mortality) for one-unit increase in cold (or heat) values.
