A data set from the meta-analysis of Katzenschlager et al. (2021). Specifically, this data set corresponds to the meta-analysis comparing the age of COVID-19 infected patients who died and those who survived. The unit of measurement for the age values is years. The rows in the data set correspond to the primary studies. Compared to the "raw" version (i.e., dat.age_raw), this data set excludes the primary study of Qi et al. (2021) due to its small sample size in the nonsurvivor group.
dat.ageA data frame with 51 rows and 13 columns:
author | first author of the primary study and the journal name. |
n.g1 | number of subjects (nonsurvivor group). |
q1.g1 | first quartile of age (nonsurvivor group). |
med.g1 | median age (nonsurvivor group). |
q3.g1 | third quartile of age (nonsurvivor group). |
mean.g1 | mean age (nonsurvivor group). |
sd.g1 | standard deviation of age (nonsurvivor group). |
n.g2 | number of subjects (survivor group). |
q1.g2 | first quartile of age (survivor group). |
med.g2 | median age (survivor group). |
q3.g2 | third quartile of age (survivor group). |
mean.g2 | mean age (survivor group). |
sd.g2 | standard deviation of age (survivor group). |
