Dear All, I am running Bayesian meta-analysis using the code below. I will like to calculate a proability that drug A and drug B is equivalence (log odds ratios is between -1 and 1). I will be glad if some can show me how to use 'and' function in WinBUGS pr1 <- step(d-1) pr2 <- step(1-d) model { for( i in 1 : Num ) { rc[i] ~ dbin(pc[i], nc[i]) rt[i] ~ dbin(pt[i], nt[i]) logit(pc[i]) <- mu[i] logit(pt[i]) <- mu[i] + delta[i] mu[i] ~ dnorm(0.0,1.0E-5) delta[i] ~ dnorm(d, tau) } d ~ dnorm(0.0,1.0E-6) # Choice of priors for random effects variance #tau ~ dgamma(0.001,0.001) #sigma <- 1 / sqrt(tau) tau<-1/(sigma*sigma) sigma~dunif(0,10) delta.new ~ dnorm(d, tau) } Regards Frank Peter ------------------------------------------------------------------- This list is for discussion of modelling issues and the BUGS software.
