Bivariate random-effects meta-analysis of sensitivity and specificity with the Bayesian SAS PROC MCMC: methodology and empirical evaluation in 50 meta-analyses.

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE Meta-analysis allows for summarizing the sensitivities and specificities from several primary diagnostic test accuracy studies quantitatively. This article presents and evaluates a full Bayesian method for bivariate random-effects meta-analysis of sensitivity and specificity with SAS PROC MCMC. METHODS First, the formula of the bivariate random-effects model is presen...

An integrated approach to the development of a Bayesian response-adaptive dose-finding study using sas and winbugs

Heavy Menstrual Bleeding (HMB) is common and existing treatments often ineffective. The MRC funded DexFEM trial aims to investigate whether oral dexamethasone (Dex; a glucocorticoid) reduces HMB. Our integrated approach to the development of a Bayesian response-adaptive dose-finding study uses SAS for data handling, generating scripts and executing analysis in WinBUGS. The clinical aims are two...

WinBUGS - A Bayesian modelling framework: Concepts, structure, and extensibility

WinBUGS is a fully extensible modular framework for constructing and analysing Bayesian full probability models. Models may be specified either textually via the BUGS language or pictorially using a graphical interface called DoodleBUGS. WinBUGS processes the model specification and constructs an object-oriented representation of the model. The software offers a user-interface, based on dialogu...

Adding New Mathematical Functions and Statistical‎ Distributions in WinBUGS

‎WinBUGS is one of the usual softwares in computational Bayesian statistics‎, ‎which is used to fit Baysian models easily‎. ‎Although this software has usual mathematical functions and statistical distributions as built in functions‎, ‎sometimes it is necessary to include other functions and distributions in computations which is done by some tricks and indirectly‎. ‎By using WinBUGS developmen...

General Design Bayesian Generalized Linear Mixed Models

Linear mixed models are able to handle an extraordinary range of complications in regression-type analyses. Their most common use is to account for within-subject correlation in longitudinal data analysis. They are also the standard vehicle for smoothing spatial count data. However, when treated in full generality, mixed models can also handle spline-type smoothing and closely approximate krigi...
