crossnma, version 1.3.0
(2024-11-28)
Major changes
Bug fixes
- crossnma.code():
- fix bug for network meta-regression of only aggregated data
- league.crossnma():
- fix bug for aggregated data only
Internal changes
- R function pairwise() provided by R package meta
not netmeta
crossnma, version 1.2.0
(2023-09-18)
Major changes
Surface under the cumulative ranking (SUCRA) can be
calculated
Studies with zero or all events excluded from network
meta-analysis with binary outcome
More flexible network graphs
Rename argument names containing n.thin to thin
to match argument name in R packages rjags and
coda
User-visible changes
- crossnma.model():
- new arguments ‘sucra’, ‘small.values’, ‘cov1.value’, ‘cov2.value’
and ‘cov3.value’ for SUCRAs
- argument ‘run.nrs.n.thin’ renamed to ‘run.nrs.thin’
- crossnma():
- argument ‘n.thin’ renamed to ‘thin’
crossnma, version 1.1.0
(2023-05-08)
Major changes
More effect measures implemented, i.e., risk ratio (sm = “RR”),
mean difference (“MD”) and standardised mean difference (“SMD”)
Behaviour of print.crossnma() and print.summary.crossnma()
switched (to be in line with other print and print.summary functions in
R)
Bug fixes
- crossnma.model():
- fix an error in computing ‘cov.ref’ for network meta-regression with
only IPDs or ADs (not both)
User-visible changes
- crossnma.model():
- new argument ‘sm’ to specify the effect measure
- new argument ‘se’ to specify standard error for aggregated data with
continuous outcome
- replace list argument ‘prior’ with arguments ‘prior.tau.trt’,
‘prior.tau.reg0’, ‘prior.tau.regb’, ‘prior.tau.regw’, ‘prior.tau.bias’,
‘prior.pi.low.rct’, ‘prior.pi.high.rct’, ‘prior.pi.low.nrs’,
‘prior.pi.high.nrs’
- replace list argument ‘run.nrs’ with arguments ‘run.nrs.var.infl’,
‘run.nrs.mean.shift’, ‘run.nrs.n.adapt’, ‘run.nrs.trt.effect’,
‘run.nrs.n.iter’, ‘run.nrs.n.burnin’, ‘run.nrs.n.thin’,
‘run.nrs.n.chains’
- crossnma.model(), crossnma(), summary.crossnma():
- new argument ‘level.ma’ to specify the level for credible
intervals
- crossnma(), crossnma.model(), heatplot.crossnma(),
league.crossnma(), print.crossnma(), summary.crossnma()
- new argument ‘backtransf’
- heatplot.crossnma(), league.crossnma(), summary.crossnma()
- argument ‘order’ replaced by ‘seq’
- argument ‘exp’ replaced by ‘backtransf’
Internal changes
crossnma.model():
- R function settings.meta() from meta package can be
used to specify the default for arguments ‘level.ma’ and
‘backtransf’
print.crossnma(), print.summary.crossnma(),
league.crossnma():
- R function settings.meta() from meta package can be
used to specify the default for argument ‘digits’
R function heatplot() renamed to heatplot.crossnma() which relies
on generic function heatplot() from R package
netmeta
heatplot.crossnma():
- R function settings.meta() from meta package can be
used to specify the default for argument ‘digits’
New auxiliary functions from meta package:
- chklevel(), deprecated2(), formatN(), formatCI(), rmSpace(),
is.wholenumber()
New auxiliary function crossnma.model2pairwise()
