Self-Controlled Case Series
The self-controlled case series, or SCCS, is a case-only study design for estimating the association between a transient exposure and an acute event by comparing each individual's event rate during exposed time windows with their rate during unexposed time windows. Developed by Paddy Farrington in 1995 for vaccine safety evaluation, it uses data only on people who experienced the outcome, and because each person serves as their own control, it automatically eliminates all fixed within-person confounders — genetics, sex, chronic conditions, socioeconomic position — without ever measuring them. A conditional Poisson likelihood removes the individual-level baseline rate and yields a relative incidence comparing risk to control periods. Whitaker, Farrington, Spiessens and Musonda's 2006 Statistics in Medicine tutorial is the standard practical guide to fitting and interpreting the model.
