Trial-level subgroup estimates from a systematic review of immunotherapies for relapsing-remitting multiple sclerosis (Heesen et al. 2024). Each trial reports treatment effects in Younger and Older age strata (log relapse rate ratio and variance—not mean differences in counts). Trial CONFIRM-B / CONFIRM-C in this table correspond to a single CONFIRM row in edss. Subgroup labels do not include numeric age cuts. See vignette("worked-examples").

Usage
