Dear all,
I use R 3.1.1 for Windows (x 64).
I performed a meta-analysis of hazard ratio using the below reported
Dataset and metagen function from package meta.
meta1<-metagen(Dataset$lnHR, Dataset$seHR, sm="HR")
Thereafter, I try to use the copas function from package metasens.
cop1<-copas(meta1)
and I have these 3 warnings:
Warning in sqrt(solve(junk2$hessian + 1e-08)[1, 1]) :
NaN was produced
Warning in sqrt(solve(junk2$hessian + 1e-08)[1, 1]) :
NaN was produced
Warning in sqrt(solve(junk2$hessian + 1e-08)[1, 1]) :
NaN was produced
If I try:
plot (cop1)
I have:
ERROR:
object "is.relative.effect" not found
Any suggestion is welcome.
The Dataset is:
