It has already been used and cited in several meta-analyses published in high-ranking journals. CONCLUSION: Meta-DiSc is a comprehensive and dedicated test accuracy meta-analysis software. Gain analysis of CQT outcomes representing the median accuracy showed a. Meta-DiSc has a Graphical User Interface with roll-down menus, dialog boxes, and online help facilities. We conducted a metaanalysis on the most commonly used forensic polygraph test. All computational algorithms have been validated through comparison with different statistical tools and published meta-analyses. RESULTS: Meta-DiSc a) allows exploration of heterogeneity, with a variety of statistics including chi-square, I-squared and Spearman correlation tests, b) implements meta-regression techniques to explore the relationships between study characteristics and accuracy estimates, c) performs statistical pooling of sensitivities, specificities, likelihood ratios and diagnostic odds ratios using fixed and random effects models, both overall and in subgroups and d) produces high quality figures, including forest plots and summary receiver operating characteristic curves that can be exported for use in manuscripts for publication.
#Comprehensive meta analysis accuracy software
In this article, we present Meta-DiSc, a Windows-based, user-friendly, freely available (for academic use) software that we have developed, piloted, and validated to perform diagnostic meta-analysis. A comprehensive meta-analysis of circulation miRNAs in glioma as. Carvalho AF, Takwoingi Y, Sales PM, Soczynska JK, Köhler CA, Freitas TH, Quevedo J, Hyphantis TN, McIntyre RS, Vieta E. However, there is currently no dedicated and comprehensive software for meta-analysis of diagnostic data. Here we performed a meta-analysis to identify the diagnostic accuracy of differentially. Screening for bipolar spectrum disorders: A comprehensive meta-analysis of accuracy studies.
This application is useful for problem solving in meta-analyses, as well as. GRE across disciplines and criteria in addition to new information. BACKGROUND: Systematic reviews and meta-analyses of test accuracy studies are increasingly being recognised as central in guiding clinical practice. Meta-analysis is the statistical procedure for combining data from multiple studies. Thus, this meta- analysis provides more accurate estimates of the validity of the.
