The phrase "average of lags" is correct and usable in written English.
It can be used in contexts involving statistics, data analysis, or time series analysis where one is calculating the mean of lagged values.
Example: "To better understand the trend, we calculated the average of lags for the past five years."
Alternatives: "mean of lags" or "lagged average".
drop (average of lags 0 13 mean temperature) below a threshold of 21°C [ 6].
We calculated parametric effect estimates for the average of lags 0 1, 2 15 and 15 27 (table 3).
We controlled for PM10 (moving average of lags 0 7), O3 (moving average of lags 0 7) and relative humidity (moving average of lags 0 7) using a natural cubic spline with 3 degrees of freedom (df), as these variables are potential confounders of the association between temperature and mortality [ 14- 16].
Pollutants were included in the models as the moving average of lags 0 2, and risk ratios were calculated per approximate standard deviation increase in pollutant levels.
A study from Europe [ 2] used the average of lags 0 15 minimum apparent temperature to estimate cold weather effects on mortality during the cold season, October-March.
Based on the results of the distibuted lag model we then fit a models with a single smooth term representing the average of lags 0 20 mean temperature.
Exposure at the current day (lag 0), a 2-day average of lag 0 and lag 1 days (lag 0 1), and a 5-day average of lag 0 to lag 4 days (lag 0 4) were examined.
For every pollutant the following lags were evaluated: lag 0, 1, 2 and the average of lag 0 6 days.
To model the effects of mean temperature we used five lag periods: the average of lag days 0-1, 2-7, 8-14, 15-21, and 22-28.
However, for Bangkok the longer cumulative average of lag 0 4 days generated the highest excess risk for all of the pollutants except SO2.
This association was stronger with a 2-day moving average of lag 0 + 1 personal NO2 (not shown; −1.75%; 95% CI, −2.83 to −0.673%).
