Meta - Analysis in Medical Research is the latest addition to the popular "Health Care" series of publications by Churchill Livingstone / ELBS. This book, co-authored by an international roster of researchers, is a labor-of-love that unites theoretical principles, practical tips, and state-of-the-art analytical strategies to help investigators and health practitioners "turn data into knowledge".
With a step-wise presentation designed to accommodate a wide range of users - practicing clinicians, medical researchers, advanced or beginning students, government officials, statistical advisors and academicians - readers are given the opportunity to gain points of understanding about: * the epistemological and hermeneutical conditions for conducting meta-analyses; * ways to identify, source, and configure the relative strengths and weaknesses of empiri-cal studies on specific areas of public health research; * strategies on handling issues typically encountered but rarely considered in the context of meta-analytic endeavors; * practical guidelines for offering valid interpretation, analysis, and transparency of findings from imprecise empirical observation and clinical impression.
By unifying these components, Meta-Analysis in Medical Research addresses the paradox that contemporary evidence-based medicine demands ever-more attention for the methods of inquiry (i. e., systematic reviews, randomized controlled trials, etc.); however, pseudo-epistemic/meta-pseudo discourse remains far more visible and esteemed than this historical tradition. Complemented by practice-driven resources, each chapter in Meta-Analysis elaborates modelling approaches, software Demystification, workflow examples, and sample content and output. Readers can rest assured that they will leave this text well-versed in their efforts to successfully navigate the endless seas of medical literature. With clear delineations between methodological theory and practical prescriptions, this book fulfills the aspirations of doctors, nurses, hospital administrators, and all professionals whose work necessarily draws from the maze of contemporary healthcare policy and potentially compromised outcomes. Reading the chapters in sequence may be beneficial, but readers can also pick and choose as their explore interests situate them along other paths within contemporary research endeavors.
One of Meta-Analysis' selling points is its inclusion of the "Metanalysis" software - a Microsoft Excel add-in that enables adopters to perform meta-analytical work regardless of their statistical training. Such practice-oriented gems enhance conventional methods such as Peto' odds ratios, standardized mean differences, and leave a lasting impression upon the hearts and minds of one's audience.
