Aunque las recomendaciones generales para la lectura crítica de un metanálisis en red son similares a las del metanálisis de estudios de tratamiento, existen aspectos específicos que deben conocerse para su correcta valoración. Destacamos la valoración de las comparaciones directas, indirectas y mixtas, y la valoración de la consistencia y el supuesto de transitividad. ABSTRACT The power of transitive property. Critical appraisal of network meta-analysis. Although the general recommendations for the critical appraisal of a network meta-analysis are similar to those of the meta-analysis of treatment studies, there are specific aspects that should be known for its correct assessment. We emphasize the evaluation of direct, indirect and mixed comparisons, and the assessment of consistency and transitivity.
