Probably due to heterogeneity in study design, most of these studies did not find consistent directions of effect measures for all exposure windows, e.g., one study found a negative effect of first trimester temperature exposure on birth weight (beta coefficient -5.4, 95% CI -7.9, -2.9), and a positive effect of third trimester temperature exposure on birth weight (beta coefficient 1.3, 95% CI 0.5-2.1) (Lawlor et al., 2005).
Where [r.sub.f] is the risk-free rate, ([r.sub.m] - [r.sub.f]) is the market risk premium and [beta] is the beta coefficient. The risk-free rate reflects the risk-free rate of an investment for which the usual measure is the 10-year U.S.
