  • How to Conduct Dose-response Meta-analysis:Method of Adjustment of Non-randomized Error

    As a valid method in systematic review, dose-response meta-analysis is widely used in investigating the relationship between independent variable and dependent variable, and which usually based on observational studies. With large sample size, observational studies can provide a reasonable amount of statistical power for meta-analysis. However, due to the design defects of observational studies, they tend to introduce many kinds of biases, which may influence the final results that make them deviation from the truth. Given the dead zone of methodology, there is no any bias adjusting method in dose-response meta-analysis. In this article, we will introduce some bias adjusting methods from other observational-study-based meta-analysis and make them suit for dose-response meta-analysis, and then compare the advantages and disadvantages of these methods.
