GRADE approach to drawing conclusions from a network meta-analysis using a minimally contextualised framework

This article describes how to draw conclusions from this type of analysis for a binary outcome or time-to-event outcome or a continuous outcome, using a minimally contextualised framework, which minimises value judgments regarding the magnitude of intervention effects.

SPS commentary:

A second article focuses on the partially contextualised framework, in which review authors consider the importance of the magnitude of the effects on an outcome without regard of other outcomes.
