Im Rahmen der Meta-Analyse wird versucht, die in klinischen Versuchen gesammelten Daten zu kombinieren, um Schlußfolgerungen über die Wirksamkeit einer Behandlung abzuleiten. Das Thema ist daher gleichermaßen relevant für Medizin und pharmazeutische Industrie. Einschlägige methodische Ansätze werden kritisch diskutiert und miteinander verglichen. Nützlich sind die ausführlichen Hinweise auf weiterführende Literatur zu Spezialthemen. (10/00)

About the Author

Alex Sutton has published extensively on meta-analysis methodology generally, and on publication bias specifically in recent years, including a major systematic review on the topic of the methodology that has been developed for meta-analysis. He currently has an active interest in the area of partially reported study information, which is currently under-researched. Dr. Sutton is co-author of a textbook on metaanalysis (Methods for Meta Analysis in Medical Research), which was published by Wiley in 2000.

Reviews

“Both books can be recommended for graduate training and are useful additions to the library of those interested in the meta-analytic accumulation of literatures on training, vocational learning, and education in the professions.”  (Vocations and Learning, 15 December 2010) "This well-written book offers an exhaustive criticism and up-to-date references, illustrates effectively with real life examples and data…" (Journal of Statistical Computation & Simulation, July 2004) "this is an excellent book..." (Short Book Reviews, April 2001) "...recommended for mathematically skilled readers interested in getting an overview of the various methods and the existing literature..." (Statistics in Medicine, 15 October 2003)
