TOP REVIEWS FROM INTRODUCTION TO SYSTEMATIC REVIEW AND META-ANALYSIS
This course helps to learn basics about systematic review and meta-analysis. I recommend this course to the beginners, who wants to do systematic review in future.
Thank you John Hopkins!
The course is wonderful, but I hope it can be improved and speak more in detail about the statistic in the meta-analysis such as meta-regression and meta-analysis for observational studies
Very informative and a great introduction for graduate students. I hope the skills and knowledge I have learned in the course can help me succeed in writing my own systematic review.
Really excellent information. Would have appreciated more basic discussion of statistical concepts, or a link to resources for those not as familiar with them or without a background in epidemiology.
