Abstract
En 中文
A meta-analysis of diagnostic test accuracy (DTA) studies typically synthesizes study-specific test sensitivity ( in all simulation scenarios. In contrast; the proposed exact methods (Exact-Logit; Exact-ASR; and Exact-FTDA) and BGLMM had minimal bias and better performance metrics; particularly for meta-analyses with sparse primary studies. Thus; the proposed exact methods should be preferred for DTA meta-analyses with small or sparse studies.
