The mscpredmodel package provides a number of functions to facilitate multiple score comparison (MSC), a network meta-analytic approach to comparing multiple prediction models or prognostic scores using individual patient data (IPD).
The main mscpredmodel functions are as follows, in approximately the order they might be used in a data analysis:
msc_sample_data
Produces a simulated dataset in order to try out the package
get_bs_samples
Generate bootstrap samples, stratified by cohort
compute_performance
Compute a performance measure for each of the scores, stratified by cohort, in each of the bootstrap samples. One such performance measure would be, for example, calibration_slope
aggregate_performance
Produces the aggregated performance and its empirically estimated variance-covariance matrix for each cohort, to be used in the (in)consistency models.
consistency
Computes the (in)consistency model.
msc_full
Based on the raw performance estimates from compute_performance
, compute direct (msc_direct
), indirect (msc_indirect
), or full network (msc_network
) pairwise comparisons. Using msc_full
, all three sets of pairwise estimates are computed at once.
