Funnel plots. The light and dark green dashed lines indicate the two- and three-standard deviation limits, respectively. The horizontal black line shows the SMR of the population. Each red dot represents the SMR of an individual intensive care unit. SMR, standardized mortality ratio. Model 1 predicted in-hospital mortality with an offset variable for the linear predictor of the APACHE III-j model using a generalized linear model. Model 2 predicted in-hospital mortality with the linear predictor of the APACHE III-j model using a generalized linear model. Model 3 predicted in-hospital mortality with the linear predictor of the APACHE III-j model using a hierarchical generalized additive model
