Risks across spaQal units are considered Qme-‐independent
Risks across spaQal units are considered Qme-‐dependent Following a pre-‐defined, parametric shape – lineal, quadraQc (leV) Following a structured trend although without a pre-‐defined shape
t is linear or quadra'c including (or not) a space-‐'me interac'on term where δj is the difference between the area specific trend and the mean trend
Different intercepts for each 'me period including or not an Interac'on term: δj the difference between the area specific effect and the Qme effect
Time as random effects: accounQng for the 'me trend (βt) and as the interac'on (ϕjt)
CASE STUDY -‐ COPD
Study characteris'cs
– PopulaQon and se^ng • ≅ 110,000 hospitalizaQons per year, produced in the 203 healthcare areas composing SHCS, from 2002 to 2012
– Main endpoint • COPD Standardized HospitalizaQon RaQo • Interpret: the higher the raQo, the worse the performance
– Analyses
– Sources: AdministraQve data

Variance fracQons
Specific evoluQon along the period
Discussion – Standardized uQlizaQon raQos are subject to large variaQon when studying small populaQons or rare events
– Frequently, informaQon is scarce or inexistent – latent phenomena can be explored
– FracQons of variance discriminates the relaQve importance of Qme-‐dependent phenomena (early adopQon, guidelines uptake) in the spaQal context (providers influence)
– Quasi-‐experiments

Discussion – Standardized uQlizaQon raQos are subject to large variaQon when studying small populaQons or rare events
– Frequently, informaQon is scarce or inexistent – latent phenomena can be explored
– FracQons of variance discriminates the relaQve importance of Qme-‐dependent phenomena (adopQon, guidelines uptake, policies implementaQon) in a spaQal context (insQtuQonal factors at area level)
– Quasi-‐experiments
Caveats – Classical 0.80 thresholds might not be valid for ST models • Different cut-‐off points might be needed depending on the period of study (higher values) and math models.
– In highly heterogeneous contexts (concentraQon of high risks in the larger units of analysis) keeping 1 as the null value increases the number of false posiQve areas.
