As a measure of heterogeneity in meta-analysis, the coefficient of variation (CV) has been recently considered, providing researchers with a complement to the very popular I 2 measure. While I 2 measures the proportion of total variance t...

Standard meta-analysis methods are vulnerable to bias from incomplete reporting of results (both publication and outcome reporting bias) and poor study quality. Several alternative methods have been proposed as being less vulnerable to such...

Meta-analytical methods face particular challenges in research fields such as social and political research, where studies often rest primarily on qualitative and case study research. In such contexts, where research findings are less stand...

Ideally, a meta-analysis will summarize data from several unbiased studies. Here we look into the less than ideal situation in which contributing studies may be compromised by non-differential measurement error in the exposure variable. Spe...

Meta-analysis is commonly used to compare two treatments. Network meta-analysis (NMA) is a powerful extension for comparing and contrasting multiple treatments simultaneously in a systematic review of multiple clinical trials. Although the ...
A comparison of hypothesis tests for homogeneity in meta-analysis with focus on rare binary events [0.03%]
基于罕见二分类结局的meta分析中一致性的假设检验方法比较研究

Chiyu Zhang et al.
Analysis of rare binary events is an important problem for biomedical researchers. Due to the sparsity of events in such problems, meta-analysis that integrates information across multiple studies can be applied to increase the efficiency o...
Meta-regression methods to characterize evidence strength using meaningful-effect percentages conditional on study characteristics [0.03%]

Meta-regression analyses usually focus on estimating and testing differences in average effect sizes between individual levels of each meta-regression covariate in turn. These metrics are useful but have limitations: they consider each cova...
Detecting publication selection bias through excess statistical significance [0.03%]

We introduce and evaluate three tests for publication selection bias based on excess statistical significance (ESS). The proposed tests incorporate heterogeneity explicitly in the formulas for expected and ESS. We calculate the expected pro...

Population-adjusted indirect comparisons estimate treatment effects when access to individual patient data is limited and there are cross-trial differences in effect modifiers. Popular methods include matching-adjusted indirect comparison (...

Non-English language (NEL) articles are commonly excluded from published systematic reviews. The high cost associated with professional translation services and associated time commitment are often cited as barriers. Whilst there is debate ...
