[R-meta] missing SD

Hi,

I have a question about, how I can replace or estimate the missing SD
values for one extraction or replace missing yi and vi in the database?
Does metafor have some function to deal with it?

Regards

Dear ?ukasz,

There is nothing automated in metafor that does this. There is replmiss(), which is just a convenience function for replacing missing values in a vector with the values from another vector (or some constant), but you have to tell the function what to replace the missing values with.

Best,
Wolfgang
