Associations between exposure to blue spaces and natural and cause-specific mortality in Greece: an ecological study (Publications)
Risk (RR): 0.98 (95% confidence interval (CI): 0.98, 0.99), as well as in mortality due to cardiovascular causes, respiratory causes and diseases of the nervous system 0.98 (95% CI: 0.97, 0.99); 0.97 (95% [...] (95% CI: 0.95, 0.99); 0.94 (95% CI: 0.88, 1.00) respectively). We estimated protective associations for ischemic heart disease (IHD) mortality (RR = 0.98, 95% CI: 0.97, 1.00 per IQR); COPD mortality (RR = [...] = 0.97, 95% CI: 0.93, 1.00 per IQR) and mortality from cerebrovascular disease...
