Practical manual on how to undertake meta-analysis in medicine with accompanying CD ROM
Over the last twenty years there has been a dramatic upsurge in the application of meta-analysis to medical research. This has mainly been due to greater emphasis on evidence-based medicine and the need for reliable summaries of the vast and expanding volume of clinical research. At the same time there have been great strides in the development and refinement of the associated statistical methodology.
This book is a joint package of a practical manual on how to undertake meta-analysis in medicine together with an accompanying CD-ROM which contains a computer program 'Metanalysis' to perform the statistical analyses for the meta-analysis. This package provides individuals with access to meta-analysis software and the instructions and guidance on how to undertake them.
The software has some unique features currently not available in other meta-analysis software packages:
