Time series regression studies in environmental epidemiology (London Ozone Study 2002-2006)
A time series regression analysis of a London ozone dataset including daily observations from 1 January 2002 to 31 December 2006. Each day has records of (mean) ozone levels that day, and the total number of deaths that occurred in the city.

The Irish Longitudinal Study on Ageing (TILDA) is a major inter-institutional initiative led by Trinity College, Dublin, to improve in the quantity and quality of data, research and information related to aging in Ireland. Eligible respondents for this study include individuals aged ≥ 50 and their spouses or partners of any age. Annual interviews on a two yearly basis (N=8,504 people) in Ireland, collecting detailed information on all aspects of their lives, including the economic (pensions, employment, living standards), health (physical, mental, service needs and usage) and social aspects (contact with friends and kin, formal and informal care, social participation). Survey interviews, physical, and biological data are collected along with demographic variables (e.g., age, sex, marital status, household composition, education, and employment), and activities of daily living (ADL), aging, childhood, depression (psychology), education, employment, exercise, eyesight, families, family life, etc.

Frailty associations with sustained attention measures5
Multinomial logistic regression analyses were used to examine frailty as the outcome variable were performed to determine associations between the sustained attention measures and prefrailty or frailty. Binary logistic regression analyses determined significant associations between the sustained attention measures and the individual frailty components. The regression models included age and gender and were also extended to include additional measures of cognitive processing speed (cognitive RT from CRT), executive function (Delta CTT), number of chronic conditions, and number of medications. We also included the quadratic term age2 to allow for any potential nonlinear effects of age on frailty in each regression model. For the independent variables in the multinomial logistic regression models, relative risk (RR) ratios with 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were provided. For the independent variables in the binary logistic regression models, OR with 95% CI were provided.
