Hi, ? Is there some easy way to split the grid.newpage() into two columns? For example, how could I put the two forest plots below (meta1 and meta2) next to each other? library(meta) data(Olkin95) meta1 <- metabin(event.e, n.e, event.c, n.c,data=Olkin95, subset=c(41,47,51,59),sm="RR", meth="I",studlab=author) meta2=meta1 meta2$studlab=rep("",length(meta1$studlab)

Trying to do a meta-analysis of correlations in R using the meta package; have tried several things and keep getting a similar error.

Hi, I want to do a meta-analysis with count data for treatement/control cases. Mi problem is that I need to use zero values (an informative zero value) for the mean and standard deviation for one of the treatement, but R has a problem: "Studies with zero values for sd.e or sd.c get no weight in meta-analysis". I can agroup the case by Family (byvar=Family). ¿Can you help me? Thanks!

Hi All, I have run a series of random effects meta regressions on binomial outcomes using the metabin function in R. Now I would like to conduct some random effects meta regressions on the outcomes. Is there a command available which will allow for me to test the impact of a certain variable on the relative treatment effect from my meta regressions? Many Thanks, Steph -- View this message in

Hello, I'm using the rmeta package to perform a meta analysis using summary statistics rather than raw data, and would like to analyze the effects in three different subgroups of my data. Furthermore, I'd like to plot this on one forest plot, with corresponding summary weighted averages of the effects displayed beneath each subgroup. I am able to generate the subgroup analyses by simply

Version 2.0-0 of meta (an R package for meta-analysis) is now available on CRAN. Changes are described below. Yours, Guido Major revision R package meta linked to R package metafor by Wolfgang Viechtbauer to provide additional statistical methods, e.g. meta-regression and other estimates for tau-squared (REML, ...) New functions: - metareg (meta-regression) - metabias

I am stuck on trying to get the Lattice xyplot to output a separate PNG file each time through my 'for' loop. The files get produced but are empty. Here is the code. I'm running 1.9 on Windows. BTW is there a more efficient way of creating the separate output files than looping over the levels and subsetting? ......................................................... lev <-

I cannot seem to get a L'abbe plot to work on R. I do not understand what the X coordinates, or alternatively an object of class metabin, is supposed to mean. What is a class of metabin? Institute of Behavioral Genetics University of Colorado, Boulder Whitney.Melroy at Colorado.EDU

Is there a way to prevent browselists from machines other than those of my choosing to show up in the browselists/network neighbourhood?

Dear R users: In the example of meta-analysis (cochrane, package rmeta), I can not found the p-value of Test for overall effect, and some other indices (Z, I, weight and et al).

Dear users of metafor, I am working on a meta-analysis using the metafor package. I have a excel csv database that I am working with. I am interested in pooling the effect measures for a particular subgroup (European women) in this csv database. I am conducting both sub-group and meta-regression. In subgroup-analyses, I have stratified the database to create a separate csv file just for European

R-experts: In 2002, Hans Van Houwelingen et al. published a tutorial on how to do meta-regression in Statistics in Medicine. They used the classic BCG dataset of Colditz to demonstrate correct methodology and computed the results using PROC MIXED in SAS. In trying to duplicate the results presented in this paper, I have discovered that I can reproduce certain items with lmer but not

Hi, I am trying to add additional columns to a forest plot using the meta package. The study information and subgroup analysis plotting is handled properly. For this output the data is ordered first by subgroup label (rnd.subgroup1 in the example) and second decreasing size of totals ('n' in the example). The proper ordering of this data is confirmed by the color coding (black and red in

Dear Colleagues, I am looking for a package or previous implemented R to subgroup and exaustively divide a vector of squence into 2 groups. For example: 1, 2, 3, 4 I want to have a group of 1, (2,3,4) (1,2), (3,4) (1,3), (2,4) (1,4), (2,3) (1,2,3), 4 (2,3), (1,4) ... Can someone help me as how to implement this? I get some imaginary problem when the sequence becomes large. Thanks much in
