Rücker, Gerta; Cates, Christopher J.; Schwarzer, Guido – Research Synthesis Methods, 2017
Systematic reviewers conducting pairwise meta-analyses sometimes encounter multi-arm studies. To include these studies, and to avoid a unit-of-analysis error, often two or more arms are combined or the control arm is split. In this tutorial, we present 5 different approaches that can be used. Particularly, we present a novel approach (method 4)…
