The application of research synthesis and Bayesian methods to evaluate the accuracy of diagnostic tests for <i>Salmonella</i> in swine
This thesis presents the results of three complementary studies which were carried out to evaluate the accuracy of diagnostic tests for Salmonella in pigs. First, a research synthesis method approach, which included a systematic review, meta-analysis and meta-regression, was used to map out existing...
