  <dc:title>Network Meta-Analysis of Multiple Diagnostic Tests</dc:title>
  <dc:title>R package NMADTA version 0.1.3</dc:title>
  <dc:subject>CRAN Task View: MetaAnalysis (https://CRAN.R-project.org/view=MetaAnalysis)</dc:subject>
  <dc:description>Provides statistical methods for network meta-analysis 
    of diagnostic tests to simultaneously compare multiple tests within a 
    missing data framework, including:
    - Bayesian hierarchical model for network meta-analysis of multiple 
      diagnostic tests 
      (Ma, Lian, Chu, Ibrahim, and Chen (2018) &lt;doi:10.1093/biostatistics/kxx025&gt;)
    - Bayesian Hierarchical Summary Receiver Operating Characteristic Model 
      for Network Meta-Analysis of Diagnostic Tests 
      (Lian, Hodges, and Chu (2019) &lt;doi:10.1080/01621459.2018.1476239&gt;).</dc:description>
