“…Goring et al (2016) and Béliveau, Goring, Platt, and Gustafson (2017) discuss Bayesian approaches to link disconnected networks. Another possible approach is to add evidence from nonrandomized trials to a contrastbased network, using propensity score or matching-adjusted indirect comparisons (MAIC) methods (Petto, Kadziola, Brnabic, Saure, & Belger, 2019;Phillippo et al, 2017;Signorovitch et al, 2012;Veroniki, Straus, Soobiah, Elliott, & Tricco, 2016). However, nonrandomized comparisons may be associated with an unclear risk of bias, potentially higher than for RCTs.…”
