Port details
R-cran-metaforMeta-analysis package for R
5.2.1mathΣ=0 Package not present on quarterly.This port was created during this quarter. It will be in the next quarterly branch but not the current one.
A comprehensive collection of functions for conducting meta-analyses in
R. The package includes functions to calculate various effect sizes or
outcome measures, fit equal-, fixed-, random-, and mixed-effects models
to such data, carry out moderator and meta-regression analyses, and
create various types of meta-analytical plots (e.g., forest, funnel,
radial, L'Abbe, Baujat, bubble, and GOSH plots). For meta-analyses of
binomial and person-time data, the package also provides functions that
implement specialized methods, including the Mantel-Haenszel method,
Peto's method, and a variety of suitable generalized linear
(mixed-effects) models (i.e., mixed-effects logistic and Poisson
regression models). Finally, the package provides functionality for
fitting meta-analytic multivariate/multilevel models that account for
non-independent sampling errors and/or true effects (e.g., due to the
inclusion of multiple treatment studies, multiple endpoints, or other
forms of clustering). Network meta-analyses and meta-analyses accounting
for known correlation structures (e.g., due to phylogenetic relatedness)
can also be conducted. An introduction to the package can be found in
Viechtbauer (2010) <doi:10.18637/jss.v036.i03>.
