Meta-analyses are currently increasingly applied for any analysis beyond the primary analysis of studies, and for the analysis of big data. This 26-chapter book was written for nonmathematical professionals of medical and health care, in the first place, but, in addition, for anyone involved in any field involving scientific research. The authors have published over twenty innovative meta-analyses from the turn of the century till now. This edition will review the current state of the art, and will use for that purpose the methodological aspects of the authors' own publications, in addition to other relevant methodological issues from the literature. Are there alternative works in the field? Yes, there are, particularly in the field of psychology. Psychologists have invented meta-analyses in 1970, and have continuously updated methodologies. Although very interesting, their work, just like the whole discipline of psychology, is rather explorative in nature, and so is their focus to meta-analysis. Then, there is the field of epidemiologists. Many of them are from the school of angry young men, who publish shocking news all the time, and JAMA and other publishers are happy to publish it. The reality is, of course, that things are usually not as bad as they seem. Finally, some textbooks, written by professional statisticians, tend to use software programs with miserable menu programs and requiring lots of syntax to be learnt. This is prohibitive to clinical and other health professionals. The current edition is the first textbook in the field of meta-analysis entirely written by two clinical scientists, and it consists of many data examples and step by step analyses, mostly from the authors' own clinical research. .MedicineMedicine/Public Health, generalhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/H00007Medicine.Medicine/Public Health, general.610.72Cleophas Ton Jauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut472359Zwinderman Aeilko Hauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/autMiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910254660003321Modern Meta-Analysis2519907UNINA01756nam2 22003251i 450 UON0051233220231205105505.405978-88-336-4282-620230314d2020 |0itac50 baitaIT|||| 1||||Dialetti emilianiDaniele Vitaliprefazione di Luciano Giannelliappendice e consulenza fonetica di Luciano CanepariBolognaPendragon2020556 p.25 cm001UON005129032001 Dialetti emiliani e dialetti toscanile interazioni linguistiche fra Emilia-Romagna e Toscana e con Liguria, Lunigiana e UmbriaDaniele Vitaliprefazione di Luciano Giannelliappendice e consulenza fonetica di Luciano Canepari210 BolognaPendragon2020215 4 v.25 cm2DIALETTI EMILIANIUONC100901FIITBolognaUONL000085457.4Lingua italiana.
