network-meta-analysis

Draft a network meta-analysis manuscript by following structured guidance aligned with the PRISMA-NMA extension, covering network geometry, consistency assessment, treatment ranking, and league-table presentation to ensure compliant reporting.

A PRISMA-NMA-compliant systematic review requires structured subsections for protocol registration, eligibility criteria, information sources, data extraction, risk of bias assessment, network geometry, effect measures, and analytic methods.

Yes, network meta-analysis consistency assessment can be implemented using either frequentist or Bayesian frameworks. The manuscript drafting process supports documenting the chosen analytic methods and effect measures for either approach.

Plan risk-of-bias assessment and CINeMA-based confidence appraisal by integrating structured subsections into your manuscript. This standardized reporting approach facilitates evaluating the certainty of treatment ranking and network geometry results.

Present treatment ranking and league tables by generating standardized manuscript templates that structure these specific subsections. This approach ensures reproducible network meta-analysis reporting and clear visualization of multiple treatment comparisons.

You need network-plot visualization when drafting a network meta-analysis manuscript to illustrate network geometry. This visual representation maps the available direct and indirect comparisons across multiple treatments evaluated in the systematic review.
