CodeSystemDisplayDefinition
  std-MAhttp://terminology.hl7.org/CodeSystem/synthesis-typesummary data meta-analysis

A meta-analysis of the summary data of estimates from individual studies or data sets.

  IPD-MAhttp://terminology.hl7.org/CodeSystem/synthesis-typeindividual patient data meta-analysis

A meta-analysis of the individual participant data from individual studies or data sets.

  indirect-NMAhttp://terminology.hl7.org/CodeSystem/synthesis-typeindirect network meta-analysis

An indirect meta-analysis derived from 2 or more direct comparisons in a network meta-analysis.

  combined-NMAhttp://terminology.hl7.org/CodeSystem/synthesis-typecombined direct plus indirect network meta-analysis

An composite meta-analysis derived from direct comparisons and indirect comparisons in a network meta-analysis.

  rangehttp://terminology.hl7.org/CodeSystem/synthesis-typerange of results

A range of results across a body of evidence.

  classificationhttp://terminology.hl7.org/CodeSystem/synthesis-typeclassifcation of results

An approach describing a body of evidence by categorically classifying individual studies (eg 3 studies showed beneft and 2 studied found no effect).

  NotApplicablehttp://terminology.hl7.org/CodeSystem/synthesis-typenot applicable

Not applicable because the evidence is not from a synthesis but from a single study. Used fo explicitly state that it's not a synthesis.

Explanation of the columns that may appear on this page:

LvlA few code lists that FHIR defines are hierarchical - each code is assigned a level. For value sets, levels are mostly used to organize codes for user convenience, but may follow code system hierarchy - see Code System for further information
SourceThe source of the definition of the code (when the value set draws in codes defined elsewhere)
CodeThe code (used as the code in the resource instance). If the code is in italics, this indicates that the code is not selectable ('Abstract')
DisplayThe display (used in the display element of a Coding). If there is no display, implementers should not simply display the code, but map the concept into their application
DefinitionAn explanation of the meaning of the concept
CommentsAdditional notes about how to use the code
