An alternative pseudolikelihood method for multivariate random-effects meta-analysis
Recently, multivariate random-effects meta-analysis models have received a great deal of attention, despite its greater complexity compared to univariate meta-analyses. One of its advantages is its ability to account for the within-study and between-study correlations. However, the standard inference procedures, such as the maximum likelihood or maximum restricted likelihood inference, require ...

and we show for different scenarios how close the estimates come. For selected treatment comparisons we present effect-sizes with confidence intervals. We apply also the Bayesian extension and discuss its advantages. ConClusions: Based on our research we give recommendations of when the Lumley-method should be best applied, and discuss limitations.1 Lumley T: Network meta-analysis for indirect ...
متن کاملConsistency and inconsistency in network meta-analysis: model estimation using multivariate meta-regression‡
Network meta-analysis (multiple treatments meta-analysis, mixed treatment comparisons) attempts to make the best use of a set of studies comparing more than two treatments. However, it is important to assess whether a body of evidence is consistent or inconsistent. Previous work on models for network meta-analysis that allow for heterogeneity between studies has either been restricted to two-ar...
متن کاملExercise for lower limb osteoarthritis: systematic review incorporating trial sequential analysis and network meta-analysis
OBJECTIVE To determine whether there is sufficient evidence to conclude that exercise interventions are more effective than no exercise control and to compare the effectiveness of different exercise interventions in relieving pain and improving function in patients with lower limb osteoarthritis. DATA SOURCES Nine electronic databases searched from inception to March 2012. STUDY SELECTION R...
متن کاملMultivariate Network Meta-Analysis: An Example In Type 2 Diabetes For The Analysis Of Glycaemic Control.
Methods • Network meta-analyses are commonly conducted within a Bayesian framework to enable the ranking of interventions, based on the probability of each treatment to be associated with the best efficacy. • Multivariate models have been developed to deal with correlation between outcomes as they allow to account for the within-study correlation between endpoints. • Moreover, the multivariate ...
