title: 'cdmeta: Confidence-Distribution-Based Inference for Random-Effects Meta-Analysis'
version: 1.1-1
doi: 10.32614/CRAN.package.cdmeta
abstract: Computational tools for confidence-distribution-propagation-based inference
  in random-effects meta-analysis. Implements confidence-distribution propagation
  for frequentist inference in random-effects meta-analysis. The package samples the
  between-study variance from a confidence distribution based on the exact distribution
  of Cochran's Q, samples the average effect conditionally on each draw, and generates
  the true effect in a future study. It provides prediction intervals and confidence
  intervals for the average effect, between-study variance, between-study standard
  deviation, and I2. The methods are described in Noma and Schwarzer (2026).
