Abstract

BACKGROUND: ) on suicide mortality. METHODS: on suicide. For exposure windows, we considered single days preceding suicide (lag 0 to 6) and their averages across preceding days (lag 0-1, 0-3, and 0-6). Analyses were stratified by season. RESULTS: levels. CONCLUSIONS: on suicide in the warm season, emphasizing the need for considering the combined effects of heat stress and air pollution in suicide prevention strategies.
