Statistical inference about the average effect in random-effects meta-analysis has been considered insufficient in the presence of substantial between-study heterogeneity. Predictive distributions are well suited for quantifying heterogeneity since they are interpretable on the effect scale and provide clinically relev…

Evidence-based practice relies on using research evidence to guide clinical decision-making. However, staying current with all published research can be challenging. Many clinicians use review articles that apply predefined methods to locate, identify, and summarize all available evidence on a topic to guide clinical d…

We present use of a simple formula to calculate the number of pairwise comparisons of interventions within a single trial or network meta-analyses. We used the data from our previous network meta-analysis to build a study-based register and enumerated the direct pairwise comparisons from the trials therein. We then com…

The more two treatments' outcome distributions overlap, the more ambiguity there is about which would be better for some clients. Effect size and t-statistics ignore this ambiguity by indicating nothing about the contrasted treatments' outcome ranges, although the wider these are the smaller are these statistics and th…

This chapter introduces methods to synthesize experimental results from independent high-throughput genomic experiments, with a focus on adaptation of traditional methods from systematic review of clinical trials and epidemiological studies. First, it reviews methods for identifying, acquiring, and preparing individual…

Meta-analysis aims to synthesize results from different studies. Although, in a meta-analysis the presence of large between-study heterogeneity is routinely evaluated, in some instances is also important to probe whether there is extreme between-study homogeneity (i.e. extreme low between-study heterogeneity). HELOW (H…

Multivariate methods in meta-analysis are becoming popular and more accepted in biomedical research despite computational issues in some of the techniques. A number of approaches, both iterative and non-iterative, have been proposed including the multivariate DerSimonian and Laird method by Jackson et al. (2010), which…

Meta-analysis of clinical trials allows all available quantitative evidence on therapeutic efficacy, to be condensed. Critical appraisal of all available evidence is a pillar of clinical science.

Meta-analysis is an alternative, quantitative approach to the analysis and synthesis of multiple investigations of the same clinical question. The statistical approaches that have been developed since Glass coined the term meta-analysis in 1976 are discussed. Clinicians will find meta-analysis helpful when there are co…
