Hello,
I am writing a meta-analysis on the complication and reoperation rates after 5
treatment modalities of a distal radius fracture. I have a code to compare the
complication and reoperation rates. Currently it is using a mixed effects
model. Is it possible to change the code so a random effects model is used?
Thank you very much,
Jay
R code
library(meta) library(readxl) All <- read_excel("Basics excel file complication
and reoperation rate.xlsx", sheet=1) names(All) <-
c("Study_ID","Event_Type","Treatment","Events_n","N","nN") All$Treatment <-
factor(All$Treatment, levels=c("PC","EF","IMN","KW","VPO")) # Outcomes
Complications <- subset(All, Event_Type=="Complications") Reoperations <-
subset(All, Event_Type=="Reoperations") # Comparison of treatment effects to
gold standard in the Complications subset mtpr1 <- metaprop(Events_n, N,
Study_ID, data = Complications) meta::metareg(mtpr1, ~Treatment) # Comparison
of treatment effects to gold standard in the Reoperations subset mtpr2 <-
metaprop(Events_n, N, Study_ID, data = Reoperations) meta::metareg(mtpr2,
~Treatment) # Comparison of treatment effects to gold standard in the All
dataset # Interaction effects have been considered mtpr <- metaprop(Events_n,
N, Study_ID, data = All) meta::metareg(mtpr, ~Treatment*Event_Type)
