Pool Literature-Based and Individual Participant Data Based Spline Estimates

Pooling estimates reported in meta-analyses (literature-based, LB) and estimates based on individual participant data (IPD) is not straight-forward as the details of the LB nonlinear function estimate are not usually reported. This package pools the nonlinear IPD dose-response estimates based on a natural cubic spline from lm or glm with the pointwise LB estimates and their estimated variances. Details will be presented in Härkänen, Tapanainen, Sares-Jäske, Männistö, Kaartinen and Paalanen (2026) "Novel pooling method for nonlinear cohort analysis and meta-analysis estimates: Predicting health outcomes based on climate-friendly diets" Epidemiology <doi:10.1097/EDE.0000000000001932>.
