Results of our GMRx2 trial has been published today in @TheLancet ! We showed how a novel low-dose triple single-pill combination led to clinically meaningful blood pressure reductions compared to dual combinations and was well tolerated.

Why do most head-to-head meta-analyses use classic/frequentist methods, when standard NMAs are Bayesian? What can we do to increase the uptake of Bayesian meta-analyses? We'll try to answer to these and other many burning questions!
Bayesian methods have seen a rising application in many areas of biomedical research, but despite their advantages, their utilisation in meta-analysis remains scarce. Read protocol, 'Bayesian approach for meta-analyses in biomedical research.👇 #JBIScoping
