This data set contains the results of a Bayesian analysis modeling the clinical outputs and costs for an economic evaluation of four different smoking cessation interventions.
A list containing the variables for the cost-effectiveness analysis:
A matrix of 500 simulations from the posterior distribution of the overall costs for the four strategies.
A dataset with characteristics of smokers in the UK population.
A matrix of 500 simulations from the posterior distribution of the clinical benefits for the four strategies.
A matrix of 500 simulations from the posterior distribution of the life years gained with each strategy.
A matrix of 500 simulations from the posterior distribution of the probability of smoking cessation with each strategy.
A data frame with inputs for the network meta-analysis,
containing: nobs
(record ID), s
(study ID), i
(intervention ID), r_i
(number of patients who quit),
n_i
(total patients in arm), and b_i
(reference
intervention for the study).
A matrix of results from the network meta-analysis model
run on the smoking
object.
A character vector of labels for the four strategies.
