Systematic review and meta-analysis

Abstract

Predictive ability of meta-analysis The first concerns the predictive ability of meta-analysis, namely the ability of a meta-analysis to predict the results of trials that may be done in the future.1 The research workers calculated relative risks for 30 meta-analyses of different interventions in perinatal medicine and compared the results with the results of the largest trial done in each intervention. Twenty-four of the 30 meta-analyses correctly predicted the direction of effect in the largest trial.

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.
