Time-sliced Meta-analysis

Time-sliced meta-analysis is a variant of standard meta-analysis in which the primary studies are partitioned into successive time periods (slices) and a separate pooled effect estimate is computed for each period. By comparing pooled effects across periods, researchers can detect whether an intervention's effectivenes

Time-sliced Systematic literature review

A time-sliced systematic literature review applies the rigorous search, screening, and synthesis protocol of a standard systematic review while dividing the retrieved corpus into discrete temporal periods — time slices — and analyzing each period separately. This design reveals how a research field has developed across

causal inference

Transfer Entropy

Transfer Entropy (TE) is a non-parametric, information-theoretic measure of directed statistical dependence between two time series, introduced by Thomas Schreiber in 2000. Grounded in Shannon entropy, it quantifies how much information the past of one process Y reduces uncertainty about the next state of another proce

Tromp Curve

The Tromp Curve, introduced by K. Tromp in 1937, is an empirical model that quantifies the performance of size classifiers (cyclones, screens, jigs) by showing the fraction of particles at each size that report to the target stream (overflow or underflow). It is universally used in mineral processing to evaluate classi

patient centered care

Trust in Physician Scale

The Trust in Physician Scale (TPS) is an 11-item self-report instrument that measures the degree to which a patient trusts their physician, including dimensions of confidentiality, competence, honesty, and care. Developed by Anderson and Dedrick in 1990, the TPS assesses the patient's confidence that the physician acts

causal inference

Two-Stage Least Squares (2SLS)

IV/2SLS is a two-stage estimation method that recovers the causal effect of an endogenous regressor by isolating the part of its variation driven by an external instrument. It is the workhorse identification strategy in modern applied econometrics, developed at length in Angrist and Pischke's Mostly Harmless Econometri

evidence synthesis

Umbrella Review

An umbrella review is a systematic synthesis of multiple systematic reviews addressing overlapping or related research questions, typically on the same topic or intervention. Also called a 'review of reviews' or 'overview of reviews,' umbrella reviews consolidate evidence when two or more high-quality systematic review

Vaccination Confidence Scale

The WHO Vaccination Confidence Scale (VCS) is a multi-domain instrument measuring three conceptually distinct dimensions of vaccine hesitancy: Confidence (trust in vaccine safety and effectiveness), Complacency (perceived need for vaccination), and Convenience (accessibility and practical barriers). Developed by the WH

VOSviewer-assisted meta-analysis

VOSviewer-assisted meta-analysis integrates the bibliometric network visualisation capabilities of VOSviewer into the literature identification and mapping phases of a standard meta-analysis. Before the statistical pooling of effect sizes begins, VOSviewer is used to visualise co-citation networks, keyword co-occurrenc

VOSviewer-assisted scoping review

A VOSviewer-assisted scoping review integrates the structured, broad-mapping purpose of a scoping review with VOSviewer's bibliometric visualization capabilities. After standard database searching and eligibility screening, the retained records are exported to VOSviewer, which produces co-authorship, keyword co-occurre

VOSviewer-assisted systematic literature review

A VOSviewer-assisted systematic literature review combines the rigorous search-and-appraisal pipeline of a standard systematic review with bibliometric network visualization produced by the VOSviewer software. The approach allows researchers to systematically retrieve and screen the literature while simultaneously mapp

West Haven Criteria for Hepatic Encephalopathy

The West Haven Criteria are the standard for grading hepatic encephalopathy (HE) severity, ranging from subclinical (Grade 0) to deep coma (Grade 4). Developed by Trey and Davidson in the 1960s and refined by the West Haven group, these criteria integrate mental status changes (confusion, asterixis, disorientation) and

Willingness to Pay in Health

Willingness to pay (WTP) is an economic valuation method that elicits what individuals or society are willing to spend for a health benefit or to avoid a health risk. Rooted in contingent valuation (Carson & Louviere, 1980s), WTP is used to monetize health outcomes for cost-benefit analysis and to infer implicit cost-e
