I'm trying to do a diagnostic meta-analysis of 51 studies using the
metandi routine by Harbord et al- as described in Stata Journal 9.2
using Stata 10.1. None of the studies are particularly large( largest
n~ 400).
However I keep getting the following error: " initial values not feasible"
I've tried changing the "nip" values and using the "force" option without luck
Is there any work-around?
