ald

Aggregate-level trial data

treatments

Treatment labels list; default B, C (common; e.g. placebo)

scale

A scaling parameter for the calculation.

Value

A list containing:

mean

The marginal treatment effect mean.

var

The marginal treatment effect variance.

Examples

if (FALSE) { # \dontrun{
strategy <- list(family = list(family = "binomial"))  # basic version
ald <- data.frame(trial = 1:5, n_B = c(10, 20, 15, 30, 25), n_C = c(12, 18, 20, 25, 22))
ALD_stats(strategy, ald, treatments = list("B", "C"), scale = "log")
} # }
