‘Summary of findings’ tables in network meta-analysis (NMA)

In these videos from a Cochrane Learning Live webinar, Juan José Yepes-Nuñez and Holger J Schünemann show how to interpret findings of network meta-analysis (NMA) through a NMA ‘Summary of findings’ (SoF) tables developed based on principles of the GRADE approach to rating certainty of evidence from NMAs.

This webinar was intended for anyone interested in discussing how to present NMA results through a ‘Summary of findings’ table.

The webinar was delivered in February 2018. Below you will find slides from the webinar [PDF] as well as edited videos covering:
