Event Details

Through reference to a recently published example, this webinar will guide attendees through the steps of preparing and conducting a study involving network meta-analysis. It will highlight how network meta-analysis differs from traditional pairwise meta-analysis and how aspects of the systematic review process differ when it is applied to a study involving network meta-analysis. A number of freely available online tools which facilitate the process of conducting such a study will be introduced. By the end of the webinar, attendees will understand the kinds of questions which can be answered with network meta-analysis, the resources needed to undertake a network meta-analysis and the benefits and challenges of network meta-analysis in comparison to traditional pairwise meta-analysis.
