EvidenceSynthesis: Synthesizing Causal Evidence in a Distributed Research Network

Routines for combining causal effect estimates and study diagnostics across multiple data sites in a distributed study, without sharing patient-level data. Allows for normal and non-normal approximations of the data-site likelihood of the effect parameter.
