Network Meta-analysis and Diffusion

Gerta Rücker, Annabel L. Davies, Guido Schwarzer

We show that the covariance matrix of the treatment effect estimates in a network meta-analysis can be obtained without matrix inversion using a geometric series of diffusion matri…

Path-Based Approach for Detecting and Assessing Inconsistency in Network Meta-Analysis: A Novel Method

Noosheen R. Tahmasebi, Annabel L. Davies, Theodoros Papakonstantinou +2

Network Meta-Analysis (NMA) plays a pivotal role in synthesizing evidence from various sources and comparing multiple interventions. At its core, NMA relies on integrating both dir…

The bipartite structure of treatment-trial networks reveals the flow of information in network meta-analysis

Annabel L Davies

Network meta-analysis (NMA) combines evidence from multiple trials comparing treatment options for the same condition. The method derives its name from a graphical representation o…

Shortest path or random walks? A framework for path weights in network meta-analysis

Gerta Rücker, Theodoros Papakonstantinou, Adriani Nikolakopoulou +3

Quantifying the contributions, or weights, of comparisons or single studies to the estimates in a network meta-analysis (NMA) is an active area of research. We extend this to the c…

Network Meta-Analysis: A Statistical Physics Perspective

Annabel L. Davies, Tobias Galla

Network meta-analysis (NMA) is a technique used in medical statistics to combine evidence from multiple medical trials. NMA defines an inference and information processing problem…

Retarded kernels for longitudinal survival analysis and dynamic prediction

Annabel L. Davies, Anthony C. C. Coolen, Tobias Galla

Predicting patient survival probabilities based on observed covariates is an important assessment in clinical practice. These patient-specific covariates are often measured over mu…

Network meta-analysis and random walks

Annabel L. Davies, Theodoros Papakonstantinou, Adriani Nikolakopoulou +2

Network meta-analysis (NMA) is a central tool for evidence synthesis in clinical research. The results of an NMA depend critically on the quality of evidence being pooled. In asses…

Degree irregularity and rank probability bias in network meta-analysis

Annabel L Davies, Tobias Galla

Network meta-analysis (NMA) is a statistical technique for the comparison of treatment options. The nodes of the network are the competing treatments and edges represent comparison…
