Abstract: A set of routines for conducting two-stage individual participant meta-analysis, and forest plots for trial subgroup analysis. The two-stage routine, ‘ipdmetan’, loops over a series of categories, fits the desired model to the data within each, and generates pooled effects, heterogeneity statistics etc, as appropriate; aggregate data may also be included from an external dataset. ‘ipdover’ allows ‘ipdmetan’ to be used outside of the meta-analytic context, for example for creating a forest plot of a series of (potentially overlapping) subgroups within a single randomized trial. This package is dependent upon the ‘metan’ package; please ensure that the latest version of the ‘metan’ package is installed.
