The command contains also an option that enables the estimation of ranking probabilities. Both consistency and inconsistency models (the ‘design-by-treatment model’ or ‘Lu & Ades model’) have been implemented as well as network meta-regression models that can incorporate covariates.


The command can perform fixed and random effects network meta-analysis assuming either a common or different between-study variances across comparisons. The mvmeta command in STATA employs a recent approach to network meta-analysis that handles the different treatment comparisons appeared in studies as different outcomes.
