alcohol_crc


The dataset reports the summarized dose-response results from eight prospective
#' studies on the relation between alcohol intake and colon-rectal risk (Orsini 2012).


data

It estimates a dose-response relation from either a single or
multiple summarized data. The trend estimation takes into account the
correlation among sets of log relative risks and use it to efficiently
estimate the dose-response relation. To obtain a pooled functional
relation, the study-specific trends are combined according to principles of
multivariate random-effects meta-analysis.
