Network Meta Analysis for Dichotomous Data and Continuous data
I am doing a network meta-analysis to find the best suitable treatment for bacteria in the Arab world.
What kind of data do I need to collect?
number of patients in the study
events in the study
number of patients in the control
events in the control
Is there any particular order in which I arrange the results?
Are there any documents helping to answer these questions?

Dear Peedikayil,
These are important questions, but they are also very general -- you are effectively asking for advice on how to design a study on a complex topic that few people will have background knowledge on. In my opinion, setting this up properly will take an extensive collaboration between substantive experts and network analysis methodologists.
Cheers,

Dear E.J
Thank you for the reply.
I have seen the sample data provided by JASP for network meta-analysis. What is the format to feed JASP for network meta analysis for binary answers? The objective of the research is to find the best drug for a medical condition.
