Hi All,
I am using metaprop to meta-analyse proportions from 8 studies using a random effects approach. Metaprop is a user written Stata package.
Meta prop uses an exact binomial method to estimate the included studies' proportions of interest and their standard errors along with 95% confidence intervals.
However, for the overall synthesized proportion, the estimated proportion is given along with its 95% CI but not its standard error. As I am using a random effects approach, metaprop also give a measure of heterogeneity and the between study variance.
Does anyone know how to extract this from metaprop easily. I can calculate it by summing the product of the study specific weights and their estimated standard errors but I am hoping that there may be a more direct method using metaprop.
Thanks for taking the time to consider this,
Don
