BAYSIAN APPROACHES TO EVIDENCE SYNTHESIS & DECISION ANALYSIS -
ASSESSING THE APPROPRIATE USE OF HORMONE REPLACEMENT THERAPY
In deciding whether a pharmaceutical should be withdrawn from clinical use, or its use restricted,
the synthesis and integration of evidence from a variety of heterogeneous sources, regarding both
potential harms and benefits, is often required. Bayesian approaches to such analyses are
illustrated by considering the use of Hormone Replacement Therapy (HRT).
