In epidemiologic studies and clinical trials with time‐dependent outcome (for instance death or disease progression), survival curves are used to describe the risk of the event over time. In meta‐analyses of studies reporting a survival curve, the most informative finding is a summary survival curve. In this paper, we propose a method to obtain a distribution‐free summary survival curve by expanding...
Making inferences about the average treatment effect using the random effects model for meta‐analysis is problematic in the common situation where there is a small number of studies. This is because estimates of the between‐study variance are not precise enough to accurately apply the conventional methods for testing and deriving a confidence interval for the average effect. We have found that a refined...
