Recently, Dominici et al. (1) reported on the potential biases incurred when using S-Plus software (Insightful Corporation, Seattle, Washington) with default convergence criteria to fit generalized additive models. In the article by Curriero et al. (2), we used a generalized additive model with S-Plus software default convergence to describe the temperature-mortality relation in 11 US cities. These analyses have now been updated . . . [Full Text of this Article]
