The metamedian package implements several methods to
meta-analyze studies that report the sample median of the outcome. When
the primary studies are one-group studies, the methods of McGrath
et al. (2019) can be applied to estimate the pooled median. In the
two-group context, the methods of McGrath
et al. (2020) can be applied to estimate the pooled difference of
medians across groups.
You can install the released version of metamedian from
CRAN with:
install.packages("metamedian")After installing the devtools package (i.e., calling
install.packages(devtools)), the development version of
metamedian can be installed from GitHub with:
devtools::install_github("stmcg/metamedian")
