This is a guide on how to conduct Meta-Analyses in R. […] Welcome to the online version of “Doing Meta-Analysis with R: A Hands-On Guide”. This book serves as an accessible introduction into how meta-analyses can be conducted in R. Essential steps for meta-analysis are covered, including pooling of outcome measures, forest plots, heterogeneity diagnostics, subgroup analyses, meta-regression, methods to control for publication bias, risk of bias assessments and plotting tools. Advanced, but highly relevant topics such as network meta-analysis, multi-/three-level meta-analyses, Bayesian … Read more →

MetaHD is an R package that performs multivariate meta-analysis for high-dimensional metabolomics data for integrating and collectively analysing individual-level metabolomics data generated from multiple studies as well as for combining summary estimates. This approach accounts for correlation between metabolites, considers variability within and between studies, handles missing values and uses shrinkage estimation to allow for high dimensionality.

Sangyoung Jung This application can help data analysis for the meta analysis and data visualization including forest plots and geographical frequency maps. It offers four key benefits: Data Cleaning and Check: The application not only cleanses datasets, preparing elements such as author names for meta-analysis, but also assists in identifying missing values and outliers during data checks. Meta-analysis Model Fitting: It is capable of conducting meta-analysis and moderator analysis with detailed statistics and diagnostic plots. Data Visualization: The application supports data visualization, … Read more →

A book about how to use R for the meta-analysis of ecological data […] We created this book as a guide to conducting meta-analysis using ecological data in R. Ecologists are increasingly turning to evidence synthesis (i.e., systematic review and meta-analysis) as a way of describing and summarizing the published evidence base within sub-disciplines. There are helpful books that provide the theory behind meta-research in ecology (Koricheva, Gurevitch, and Mengersen 2013). There are also more technical guides that provide the R code for conducting meta-analyses, but these are typically built … Read more →
