Do you know why network meta-analyses (NMA) are important?
Do you wonder what steps are included in NMAs?

Network meta-analysis is a critical field, especially for multiple treatment options where a direct comparison is impossible without this systematic review and analysis.

In today’s episode, I discuss with Georgia the following:
  • Key assumptions for network meta-analyses
  • Assessment for checking these assumptions
  • Tools to run an NMA
  • What starters need to read about NMAs
  • Resources at the ISPM

Georgia Salanti, Prof., PhD

Head of research group, Evidence Synthesis Methods Research Group.

Her research focuses on statistical modelling for evidence synthesis and the methodology of systematic reviews. She is particularly interested in publication bias issues, the impact of missing outcome data and network meta-analysis. Several of her methodological developments have been applied to answer clinical questions in mental health.

I want to help the community of statisticians, data scientists, programmers and other quantitative scientists to be more influential, innovative, and effective. I believe that as a community we can help our research, our regulatory and payer systems, and ultimately physicians and patients take better decisions based on better evidence.

I work to achieve a future in which everyone can access the right evidence in the right format at the right time to make sound decisions.

When my kids are sick, I want to have good evidence to discuss with the physician about the different therapy choices.

When my mother is sick, I want her to understand the evidence and being able to understand it.

When I get sick, I want to find evidence that I can trust and that helps me to have meaningful discussions with my healthcare professionals.

I want to live in a world, where the media reports correctly about medical evidence and in which society distinguishes between fake evidence and real evidence.

Let’s work together to achieve this.
