Dear all,

I use R 2.15.2 for Windows 8

I ask if it is possible perform a meta-analysis of annualized event
rate from several studies reporting

Try metafor (from CRAN)

Look in the help for escalc for incidence rate ratio and see if that section fits the studies you have.


1) number of patients enrolled (N)
2) mean lenght of follow-up time (mo)
3) annualized event rate (AER) (expressed as % person-year)

I would like suggestions on package(s) and code.

Many thanks in advance.
