摘要
Methods of network meta-analysis (NMA) can be classified as arm-based and contrast-based approaches. There are several arm-based approaches, and some of these have been criticized because they recover inter-study information and hence do not obey the principle of concurrent control. Here, we point out that recovery of inter-study information in arm-based NMA can be prevented by fitting a fixed main effect for studies. Advantages of arm-based NMA are discussed.
