  1. ΔTmax = the maximum change in temperature
  2. aDefined as the first day with >8 hours of significant temperature elevation (as determined by ARIMA modeling)
  3. bCalculated as the number of hours of significant temperature elevation
  4. cCalculated as the sum of the significant temperature elevations
  5. dCalculated by dividing fever hours by fever duration in hours
