sens_inf: Decision Inconsistency index for individual studies and leave-one out sensitivity analysis for inconsistency measures

Description

Computation of the Decision Inconsistency index for each individual primary study and leave-one-out sensitivity analysis for the Decision Inconsistency index and the Across-Studies Inconsistency index.

Usage

sens_inf(x)
# S3 method for sens_inf
print(x, ...)
# S3 method for sens_inf
summary(object, ...)
# S3 method for summary.sens_inf
print(x, ...)

Value

This function generates:

di_stud

A data frame containing the Decision Inconsistency index for each individual primary study.

di_asi_sens

A data frame containing results of a leave-one-out sensitivity analysis for the Decision Inconsistency index and the Across-Studies Inconsistency index.

Arguments

x

An R object of class inc.

...

Additional arguments (ignored).

object

An R object of class sens_inf.

Author

Bernardo Sousa-Pinto

Details

Computes the Decision Inconsistency index (DI) for each individual primary study and performs a leave-one-out sensitivity analysis for the DI and for the Across-Studies Inconsistency index. This function takes, as its single argument, an object of the class inc.

Examples

# \donttest{
data(anticoagulation)
inc_anticoagulation <-
  inc(log(anticoagulation), dt1 = 16, dt2 = 31, dt3 = 60,
    br = 0.5, sm = "OR")
sens <- sens_inf(inc_anticoagulation)
sens
# }
