Comparison of pooled risk estimates for adverse effects from different observational study designs: methodological overview

Abstract

A diverse range of study designs (e.g. case-control or cohort) are used in the evaluation of adverse effects. We aimed to ascertain whether the risk estimates from meta-analyses of case-control studies differ from that of other study designs.
