altmeta: Alternative Meta-Analysis Methods

Provides alternative statistical methods for meta-analysis, including: - bivariate generalized linear mixed models for synthesizing odds ratios, relative risks, and risk differences (Chu et al., 2012 <doi:10.1177/0962280210393712>) - heterogeneity tests and measures and penalization methods that are robust to outliers (Lin et al., 2017 <doi:10.1111/biom.12543>; Wang et al., 2022 <doi:10.1002/sim.9261>); - measures, tests, and visualization tools for publication bias or small-study effects (Lin and Chu, 2018 <doi:10.1111/biom.12817>; Lin, 2019 <doi:10.1002/jrsm.1340>; Lin, 2020 <doi:10.1177/0962280220910172>; Shi et al., 2020 <doi:10.1002/jrsm.1415>); - meta-analysis of combining standardized mean differences and odds ratios (Jing et al., 2023 <doi:10.1080/10543406.2022.2105345>); - meta-analysis of diagnostic tests for synthesizing sensitivities, specificities, etc. (Reitsma et al., 2005 <doi:10.1016/j.jclinepi.2005.02.022>; Chu and Cole, 2006 <doi:10.1016/j.jclinepi.2006.06.011>); - meta-analysis methods for synthesizing proportions (Lin and Chu, 2020 <doi:10.1097/ede.0000000000001232>); - models for multivariate meta-analysis, measures of inconsistency degrees of freedom in Bayesian network meta-analysis, and predictive P-score (Lin and Chu, 2018 <doi:10.1002/jrsm.1293>; Lin, 2020 <doi:10.1080/10543406.2020.1852247>; Rosenberger et al., 2021 <doi:10.1186/s12874-021-01397-5>).
