Synopsis
This is a lucid, comprehensive introduction to meta-analysis, decision analysis, and cost-effectiveness analysis. These three closely related methods have become even more important for synthesizing research since the first edition was published in 1994. And they have gained legitimacy as tools for guiding health policy. In the Second Edition, Petitti has added new material on cumlative meta-analysis and the exploration of heterogeneity, incorporated recommendations for standardizing the conduct of cost-effectiveness analysis, and updated the rest of the text., Meta-analysis, decision analysis, and cost-effectiveness analysis are the cornerstones of evidence-based medicine. These related quantitative methods have become essential tools in the formulation of clinical and public policy based on the synthesis of evidence. All three methods are taught with increasing frequency in medical schools and schools of public health and in health policy courses at the undergraduate and graduate level. This book is a lucid introduction, and will serve the needs of students taking introductory courses that cover these topics. It will also be useful to clinicians and policymakers who need to understand the quantitative underpinnings of the methods in order to best apply the information that derives from them. The second edition of this popular book adds new material on cumulative meta-analysis as a method to explore heterogeneity. The coverage of cost-effectiveness analysis has been brought into close alignment with recommendations of the U.S. Public Health Panel on Cost-Effectiveness Analysis in Health and Medicine. Many of the examples have been replaced with more current examples, and all of the material has been updated to reflect recent advances in the methods and the emergence of consensus about some previously controversial issues. analysis. These three closely related methods have become even more important for synthesizing research since the first edition was published in 1994. And they have gained legitimacy as tools for guiding health policy., The Code of Federal Regulations is a codification of the general and permanent rules published in the Federal Register by the Executive departments and agencies of the United States Federal Government.

    They came pretty quick,and were EXACTLY as described in the listing, but I realized that even though they fit, they are a little too big (YAY!) and Ill have to order the next size down very soon! They were an AWESOME price, especially seeing that the tags on them said $7 each and including delivery & tax, I only paid $17.04 - is THAT a deal, or what?!?! They came fairly quick and packaging survived shipping just fine! THANK YOU!!

    I placed this order August 20. It wasn’t shipped until September 3. I received it September 13. Also on August 20 I placed a similar order of dishes from a different seller and received it August 25 along with a lovely thank you note from the seller. Both shipped from similar distances. I’m unclear why it took 2 weeks to start the shipping process for this seller. On the positive side, this order was carefully packed and the dishes were as described. The price for the dishes was very fair.
