Network meta-analysis is a statistical method that allows for comparing three or more interventions in a single framework, by synthesizing direct and indirect evidence from multiple studies which address the same scientific question. Healthcare interventions are often complex (or multicomponent), comprising multiple, possibly interacting, components. While NMA focuses on estimating intervention effects, component NMA (CNMA) disentangles the effect of each component.
In this web clinic, Sofia Tsokani introduced CNMA and discussed its benefits and limitations.
