Studies comparing Tiotropium, Aclidinium and Placebo for maintenance treatment of moderate to severe chronic obstructive pulmonary disease

Description

A dataset from a systematic review of Randomised-Controlled Trials (RCTs) for maintenance treatment of moderate to severe chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) \insertCitekarabis2013MBNMAtime. Data are extracted from \insertCitetallarita2019MBNMAtime. SEs were imputed for three studies, and number of patients randomised were imputed for one study (LAS 39) in which they were missing, using the median standard deviation calculated from other studies in the dataset. The outcome is trough Forced Expiratory Volume in 1 second (FEV1), measured in litres and reported in each study arm as mean change from baseline to follow-up. The dataset includes 13 Randomised-Controlled Trials (RCTs), comparing 2 treatments (Tiotropium and Aclidinium) and placebo.

Usage

• time Numeric data indicating the time at which the observation was measured (given in weeks)

• y Numeric data indicating the mean change from baseline in FEV1 (litres) in a study arm

• se Numeric data indicating the standard error for the mean change from baseline in FEV1 in a study arm

• treatment Factor data indicating the treatment to which participants were randomised

• n Numeric data indicating the number of participants randomised to each arm
