Systematic reviews with meta-analyses are powerful tools that can answer research questions based on data from published studies. Ideally, all relevant data is directly available in the text or tables, but often it is only presented in grap...

Clinical trials registers form an important part of the search for studies in systematic reviews of intervention effectiveness but the search interfaces and functionality of registers can be challenging to search systematically and resource...
Quantifying the robustness of primary analysis results: A case study on missing outcome data in pairwise and network meta-analysis [0.03%]

Conducting sensitivity analyses is an integral part of the systematic review process to explore the robustness of results derived from the primary analysis. When the primary analysis results can be sensitive to assumptions concerning a mode...
Capturing the underlying distribution in meta-analysis: Credibility and tolerance intervals [0.03%]
元分析中捕获潜在分布：可信度和容限区间

Tolerance intervals provide a bracket intended to contain a percentage (e.g., 80%) of a population distribution given sample estimates of the mean and variance. In random-effects meta-analysis, tolerance intervals should contain researcher-...
An evidence-splitting approach to evaluation of direct-indirect evidence inconsistency in network meta-analysis [0.03%]
一种用于评估网状Meta分析中直接间接证据不一致性的证据拆分方法

Network meta-analysis (NMA) compares the efficacy and harm between several treatments by combining direct and indirect evidence. The validity of NMA requires that all available evidence form a coherent network. Failure to meet such requirem...
Inconsistencies in study eligibility criteria are common between non-Cochrane systematic reviews and their protocols registered in PROSPERO [0.03%]
不一致的纳入排除标准在国际前瞻性系统评价注册库（PROSPERO）注册的非Cochrane系统评价及其方案中很常见

The author should give careful consideration to the study eligibility criteria of systematic reviews (SRs) and follow it after review protocol development to reduce the possibility of manipulation of inclusion. Our aim was to investigate th...

The normal-normal hierarchical model (NNHM) constitutes a simple and widely used framework for meta-analysis. In the common case of only few studies contributing to the meta-analysis, standard approaches to inference tend to perform poorly,...

Few data-driven approaches are available to estimate the risk of conclusion change in systematic review updates. We developed a rule-based approach to automatically extract information from reviews and updates to be used as features for mod...

Meta-analysis results are usually presented in forest plots, which show the individual study results and the summary effect along with their confidence intervals. In this paper, we propose a system of linear springs as a mechanical analogue...
