[R] metafor - code for analysing geometric means

[Purssell, Ed]

?Dear All


I have some data expressed in geometric means and 95% confidence intervals.  Can I code them in metafor as:


rma(m1i=geometric mean 1, m2i=geometric mean 2, sd1i=geometric mean 1 CI /3.92, sd2i=geometric mean 2 CI/3.92.......etc, measure="MD")

All of the studies use geometric means.


Thanks!


Edward
