Multivariate Bayesian meta-analysis: joint modelling of multiple cancer types using summary statistics

Abstract: Background: Cancer atlases often provide estimates of cancer incidence, mortality or survival across small areas of a region or country. A recent example of a cancer atlas is the Australian cancer atlas (ACA), that provides interactive maps to visualise spatially smoothed estimates of cancer incidence and survival for 20 different cancers over 2148 small areas across Australia. Methods: The present study proposes a multivariate Bayesian meta-analysis model, which can model multiple cancers jointly using su… Show more

“…One of the most popular data syntheses tool is meta-analysis (Brockwell and Gordon, 2001;Burke et al, 2017;Jackson et al, 2011;Riley et al, 2007Riley et al, , 2008 and a typical task is the inference for an overall effect or quantifying variabilities within or across multiple data sources. It has widespread applications in many fields including clinical trails (Moreno et al, 2018;Verde et al, 2016), psychology (Williams et al, 2018), medical science (Jahan et al, 2020;Lin and Chu, 2018), etc. Bayesian meta-analysis receives tremendous attention due to its sound performance in some challenging situations such as a small heterogeneity across studies (Chung et al, 2013;Hong et al, 2021) and incomplete outcomes from some data sources (Wei and Higgins, 2013).…”
