In baggr: Bayesian Aggregate Treatment Effects

Vitamin A supplementation and child mortality

Description

Summary-level data from the Imdad et al. (2022) meta-analysis of vitamin A supplementation and all-cause child mortality in children aged six months to five years. Effects are log risk ratios.

Usage

vitamin_a

Format

A data frame with 18 rows and 3 columns:

group

Study label.

tau

Estimated log risk ratio for all-cause child mortality.

se

Standard error of the estimated log risk ratio.

Details

The source CSV contains one row for Lin 2008 with tau = 0 and se = 0. That row is excluded here because the object is intended to be used directly with baggr() and a zero standard error is not a valid summary-data input.
