Description

Network meta-analysis dataset for comparing interventions for actinic keratosis.

Format

A data frame in contrast format with the following columns:

logOR log odds ratio
selogOR standard error of log odds ratio
id study ID
t1 first treatment
t2 second treatment

Details

The dataset compares the relative effects of nine interventions:

The outcome is the number of individuals with participant complete clearance or equivalent efficacy. These data are in contrast format with effect size the odds ratio (OR). The arm-level data were used in Gupta and Paquet (2013).
