We note that MSPEs using P1, which incorporates between-imputation variability from, are always higher than MSPEs using P2 = P3, which in the linear model equate to using.
Analysis with and without zero total event trials of three illustrative published meta-analyses with a range of proportions of zero total event trials, treatment effects, and heterogeneity using inverse variance weighting and random effects that incorporates between-study heterogeneity.
The potential for defining a threshold temperature to identify unhealthy cattle based on IRT was examined using a Bayesian hierarchical model, which incorporates between-animal variation and facilitates predictions outside the data which allow for parameter uncertainty.
Finally, although the inverse variance method is the only non-Bayesian method that incorporates between-study heterogeneity, the same authors found that it gives biased effect estimates when event rates are low.
We should also mention that there are different models that can incorporate between-study heterogeneity in the calculations.
For these 5 polymorphisms, random effects calculations incorporating between-study heterogeneity revealed more conservative p-values for the summary effects compared with the fixed effects calculations.
The summary risk estimates were pooled using either fixed-effects or random-effects models to incorporate between-study variation.
Data analyses with longitudinal models incorporating between-subject and within-subject analyses with inclusion of timely changes in diagnoses and drug prescriptions.
We used the DerSimonian and Laird random-effects models to incorporate between-study variability and to report pooled effect estimates (22).
A mixed analysis of variance (ANOVA) technique, incorporating between-participants and within-participants factors, was adopted to assess the effect of grouping, time and interaction effects.
We used random-effects models, which incorporate between-trial heterogeneity and give wider confidence intervals when heterogeneity is present, to pool data.
