  r-help a r-project.org

Dear all,

I use R 2.15.2 for Windows 8

I ask if it is possible perform a meta-analysis of annualized event  
rate from several studies reporting

1) number of patients enrolled (N)
2) mean lenght of follow-up time (mo)
3) annualized event rate (AER) (expressed as % person-year)

I would like suggestions on package(s) and code.

Many thanks in advance.
