About the app

IPDmada is an application designed for individual patient data meta-analysis (IPD-MA) of diagnostic test accuracy (DTA). This application offers a comprehensive set of analyses applicable not only in IPD-MA but also in primary studies of diagnostic accuracy. The analyses provided by IPDmada include generating a summary table of patient characteristics, calculating various test performance measures, creating forest plots of sensitivity and specificity, and generating summary receiver operating characteristic (ROC) plots for dichotomized tests. Additionally, IPDmada facilitates the examination of distribution of test results and ROC curves for continuous tests, forest plots of areas under the curve for continuous tests, and distribution of covariates along with covariate-adjusted ROC curves for in-depth covariate analysis. These functionalities collectively offer a thorough diagnostic test accuracy study. Original Publication: Res Synth Methods. 2021 Jan; 12(1): 45–54.

In an illustrative case study, IPDmada was applied to evaluate the diagnostic accuracy of transient evoked otoacoustic emissions (TEOAEs), distortion product otoacoustic emissions (DPOAEs), and auditory brainstem responses (ABRs) for neonatal hearing impairment, using data from a previous publication by Norton et al. The application proved to be user-friendly and versatile, serving as a one-stop solution for researchers, including those with limited statistical expertise, by providing all the necessary analyses for a DTA study. IPDmada emerges as a valuable tool for simplifying and enhancing the statistical analysis of diagnostic test accuracy, supporting both primary studies and meta-analyses with a user-friendly interface.
