admetan

[Lina Massou]

Hi,

I'm using the admetan command to run a meta-analysis where I consider subgroups using by(). The issue is that for the subgroups with 1 or 2 studies, the I-squared and the p-value are missing due to insufficient data, and as a result the heterogeneity between groups (at the end of the forest plot) gives missing p-value. When I run the same analysis with metan I have I^2=0 and non-missing p-values. Any idea why is this and how to fix it?

thank you in advance!

Hi Lina,
As of November 2020, admetan is no longer supported, and its functionality has all been folded into the metan package. The latest version of metan is currently v4.06 12oct2022 (available via SSC). Could you please check that you have the latest version of metan installed, and confirm whether or not this resolves your issue?
Many thanks,
David.
