Numbers of patients and events (paresthesia rates)
in experimental and control groups of 6 studies.
It is in one-study-per-row format.

datasets

Performs Bayesian meta-analysis, meta-regression and model-based meta-analysis
using 'Stan'. Includes binomial-normal hierarchical models and option to use
weakly informative priors for the heterogeneity parameter and the treatment effect
parameter which are described in Guenhan, Roever, and Friede (2020) <doi:10.1002/jrsm.1370>.
