Practical methodology of meta‐analyses (overviews) using updated individual patient data
Abstract
Meta‐analyses using updated individual patient data may provide the most reliable means of combining data from similar randomized controlled trials. The benefits of this approach to systematic reviews are described. Guidance, based on the experience of several groups who have undertaken such projects, is given. This includes practical advice on initiating and maintaining collaboration, the time and resources required to undertake these usually international projects and methods of data checking and validation. Example proforma are included.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
