I apologize for posting my question here: I see that “Network-meta-analysis” isn’t even an available tag in this forum. I had written it in StackExchange/CrossValidated, but it was deleted as it “focuses on programming, debugging, or performing routine operations, or it asks about obtaining datasets”, whatever this means. If anyone has suggestions on a more proper place where to ask this question, they are welcome.
I’m looking for a way to assess loop inconsistency in a Network Meta-Analysis in R, with data at the comparison level.
What I’m looking for is performed, in Stata, by “ifplot”: https://www.stata-journal.com/article.html?article=st0411
Is there a way to get the same in R?
So far, I’ve only found the “local.ict” command of the “NMA” package ( https://www.ism.ac.jp/~noma/file/software/NMA.r ) that, by judging from the example,
hf2 <- setup(study=study,trt=trt,d=d,n=n,measure="OR",ref="Placebo",data=heartfailure)"
requires data at the arm level.
