Individual participant data meta-analysis with mixed-effects transformation models [PDF]

open access: yesBiostatistics, 2021
SummaryOne-stage meta-analysis of individual participant data (IPD) poses several statistical and computational challenges. For time-to-event outcomes, the approach requires the estimation of complicated nonlinear mixed-effects models that are flexible enough to realistically capture the most important characteristics of the IPD.

Using individual participant data to improve network meta-analysis projects [PDF]

open access: yesBMJ Evidence-Based Medicine, 2022
A network meta-analysis combines the evidence from existing randomised trials about the comparative efficacy of multiple treatments. It allows direct and indirect evidence about each comparison to be included in the same analysis, and provides a coherent framework to compare and rank treatments.

Natriuretic peptides and integrated risk assessment for cardiovascular disease. an individual-participant-data meta-analysis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
BACKGROUND: Guidelines for primary prevention of cardiovascular diseases focus on prediction of coronary heart disease and stroke. We assessed whether or not measurement of N-terminal-pro-B-type natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP) concentration could enable ...

Testing moderation in network meta‐analysis with individual participant data [PDF]

open access: yesStatistics in Medicine, 2016
Meta‐analytic methods for combining data from multiple intervention trials are commonly used to estimate the effectiveness of an intervention. They can also be extended to study comparative effectiveness, testing which of several alternative interventions is expected to have the strongest effect.

Commentary: Meta-analysis of Individual Participants' Data in Genetic Epidemiology [PDF]

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Epidemiology, 2002
The authors summarize their experience in the conduct of meta-analysis of individual participants' data (MIPD) with time-to-event analyses in the field of genetic epidemiology. The MIPD offers many advantages compared with a meta-analysis of the published literature. These include standardization of case definitions, outcomes, and covariates; inclusion

Combining multiple imputation and meta‐analysis with individual participant data [PDF]

open access: yesStatistics in Medicine, 2013
Multiple imputation is a strategy for the analysis of incomplete data such that the impact of the missingness on the power and bias of estimates is mitigated. When data from multiple studies are collated, we can propose both within‐study and multilevel imputation models to impute missing data on covariates.
