Implementation of meta-analysis using incidence rate ratio as effect size in R Studio software
Incidence rate is a common effect measure.The incidence rate ratio refers to the ratio of two different incidence rates.It is used to compare the difference in the number of cases per unit person-time between two groups.RevMan software can not perform a meta-analysis with the incidence rate ratio as the effect size at present.A set of simulation data was used to demonstrate a meta-analysis process with the incidence rate ratio as the effect size by using the meta package of R Studio software in this article.
