Visualize the Results of Risk-of-Bias (ROB) Assessments

v0.3.0 · Nov 22, 2019 · MIT + file LICENSE

Description

Helps users in quickly visualizing risk-of-bias assessments performed as part of a systematic review. It allows users to create weighted bar-plots of the distribution of risk-of-bias judgments within each bias domain, in addition to traffic-light plots of the specific domain-level judgments for each study. The resulting figures are of publication quality and are formatted according the risk-of-bias assessment tool use to perform the assessments. Currently, the supported tools are ROB2.0 (for randomized controlled trials; Sterne et al (2019) <doi:10.1136/bmj.l4898>), ROBINS-I (for non-randomised studies of interventions; Sterne et al (2016) <doi:10.1136/bmj.i4919>), and QUADAS-2 (for diagnostic accuracy studies; Whiting et al (2011) <doi:10.7326/0003-4819-155-8-201110180-00009>).
