Another year at the @seepidemiologia.bsky.social conference✨

I had the chance to present how the @salutpublicabcn.bsky.social carries out surveillance of the impact of heat on mortality.

Great sessions and always nice to reconnect with friends & colleagues!

🌍 Happy to share our new article on heat and mental health in 3.3M adults in Barcelona. Very warm days are linked to more anxiety and depression. Thanks to the team and special thanks to Andrea for his effort! 🙏

🌡️ New global study: hot nights increase mortality risk — independently of daytime heat. 178 cities, 44 countries, 14M+ deaths analyzed.

Our new study published in Environment Int and led by Carmen Iñiguez and myself from the MCC Research Network.

We've made the reproducible R-INLA code available on GitHub (github.com/marcosqz/sbd...). We hope this encourages more researchers to apply SB-DLNMs in environmental epidemiology! #OpenScience #RStats

This speed boost, along with easier implementation on Linux clusters for parallelization, opens up new possibilities for using SB-DLNMs with large-scale datasets. Imagine continent-wide analyses! 🌍

Despite the significant speed improvement, the results from our R-INLA implementation are highly comparable to those from WinBUGS, showing similar temperature-mortality associations and spatial risk distributions.

Good news! We've rewritten SB-DLNMs in R-INLA, drastically cutting down computation time. For our case study on temperature-mortality in Barcelona, execution time dropped from over 14 days to just 25 minutes! ⏱️🔥

Spatial Bayesian distributed lag non-linear models (SB-DLNM) for small-area exposure-lag-response epidemiological modelling AbstractBackground. Distributed lag non-linear models (DLNMs) are the reference framework for modelling lagged non-linear associations. They are usually us

Originally, we implemented SB-DLNMs using WinBUGS, which was effective but computationally intensive (think weeks of execution time! 😫). Check out our previous work on this here: academic.oup.com/ije/article/...

We're excited to share our work on Spatial Bayesian Distributed Lag Non-Linear Models (SB-DLNMs) with R-INLA! These models are crucial for understanding how environmental exposures impact health in small areas. Read our new "Letter": academic.oup.com/ije/article-... #EpiTwitter #SpatialEpidemiology

📊 Energy Poverty (EP) increased from 12.4% (2016) to 14.4% (2021). Vulnerable groups like migrants from low- & middle-income countries & manual workers faced the greatest impacts. Women, particularly aged 15–65, were disproportionately affected. #PublicHealth
