Yao, Minghong; Wang, Yuning; Ren, Yan; Jia, Yulong; Zou, Kang; Li, Ling; Sun, Xin – Research Synthesis Methods, 2023
Rare events meta-analyses of randomized controlled trials (RCTs) are often underpowered because the outcomes are infrequent. Real-world evidence (RWE) from non-randomized studies may provide valuable complementary evidence about the effects of rare events, and there is growing interest in including such evidence in the decision-making process.…

Proctor, Tanja; Zimmermann, Samuel; Seide, Svenja; Kieser, Meinhard – Research Synthesis Methods, 2022
During drug development, a biomarker is sometimes identified as separating a patient population into those with more and those with less benefit from evaluated treatments. Consequently, later studies might be targeted, while earlier ones are performed in mixed patient populations. This poses a challenge in evidence synthesis, especially if only…

Pedder, Hugo; Boucher, Martin; Dias, Sofia; Bennetts, Margherita; Welton, Nicky J. – Research Synthesis Methods, 2020
Time-course model-based network meta-analysis (MBNMA) has been proposed as a framework to combine treatment comparisons from a network of randomized controlled trials reporting outcomes at multiple time-points. This can explain heterogeneity/inconsistency that arises by pooling studies with different follow-up times and allow inclusion of studies…

Uhlmann, Lorenz; Jensen, Katrin; Kieser, Meinhard – Research Synthesis Methods, 2017
Network meta-analysis is becoming a common approach to combine direct and indirect comparisons of several treatment arms. In recent research, there have been various developments and extensions of the standard methodology. Simultaneously, cluster randomized trials are experiencing an increased popularity, especially in the field of health services…
