This dataset is from Cipriani et al. (2016), comparing the efficacy and tolerability of antidepressants for major depressive disorders in children and adolescents. Our case study focuses on efficacy. The authors originally performed a network meta-analysis; however, here we restrict the comparison to fluoxetine and placebo. The continuous outcomes are measured by the mean overall changes in depressive symptoms from baseline to endpoint. For the binary outcomes, events are defined as whether patients' depression rating scores were reduced by at least a specified cutoff value.
