Efficient Integration of Aggregate Data and Individual Patient Data in One-Way Mixed Models
单向混合模型中汇总数据与个体患者数据的高效整合
Often both Aggregate Data (AD) studies and Individual Patient Data (IPD) studies are available for specific treatments. Combining these two sources of data could improve the overall meta-analytic estimates of treatment effects. Moreover, often for some studies with AD, the associated IPD maybe available, albeit at some extra effort or cost to the analyst. We propose a method for combining treatment effects across trials when the response is from the exponential family of…
