Description
R package netmeta (Balduzzi et al., 2023) provides frequentist methods for network meta-analysis and supports Schwarzer et al. (2015), Chapter 8 "Network Meta-Analysis".
Available network meta-analysis models
frequentist network meta-analysis (Rücker, 2012; Rücker & Schwarzer, 2014);
additive network meta-analysis for combinations of treatments (Rücker, Petropoulou et al., 2020);
network meta-analysis of binary data using the Mantel-Haenszel method or the non-central hypergeometric distribution (Efthimiou et al., 2019), or penalised logistic regression (Evrenoglou et al., 2022).
Methods to present results of a network meta-analysis
network graphs (Rücker & Schwarzer, 2016);
forest plots;
league tables with network meta-analysis results;
tables with network, direct and indirect estimates looking similar to the statistical part of a GRADE table for a network meta-analysis (Puhan et al., 2014).
Methods to rank treatments
rankograms and ranking by the Surface Under the Cumulative RAnking curve (SUCRA) (Salanti et al., 2011);
ranking of treatments by P-scores (frequentist analogue of SUCRAs without resampling) (Rücker & Schwarzer, 2015);
partial order of treatment rankings ('poset') and Hasse diagram for 'poset' (Carlsen & Bruggemann, 2014; Rücker & Schwarzer, 2017).
Methods to evaluate network inconsistency
split direct and indirect evidence to check consistency (Dias et al., 2010);
net heat plot and design-based decomposition of Cochran's Q (Krahn et al., 2013).
Additional methods
contribution of direct comparisons to network estimates (Papakonstantinou et al., 2018; Davies et al., 2022)
- importance of individual studies measured by reduction of precision if removed from network (Rücker, Nikolakopoulou et al., 2020)
- 'comparison-adjusted' funnel plot (Chaimani & Salanti, 2012);
- measures characterizing the flow of evidence between two treatments (König et al., 2013).
