The AMI incidence rate per 100,000 year has a decreasing trend over the 10-year period, derived from the Korean NHIS database. Modest daily temperature differences (8-10°) and the spring season are related to higher AMI incidence, indicating that daily temperature variation is more important than the mean daily temperature.
