Description: Network meta-analysis tools based on contrast-based
        approach using the multivariate meta-analysis and
        meta-regression models (Noma et al. (2025)
        <doi:10.1101/2025.09.15.25335823>). Comprehensive analysis
        tools for network meta-analysis and meta-regression (e.g.,
        synthesis analysis, ranking analysis, and creating league
        table) are available through simple commands. For inconsistency
        assessment, the local and global inconsistency tests based on
        the Higgins' design-by-treatment interaction model are
        available. In addition, the side-splitting methods and
        Jackson's random inconsistency model can be applied. Standard
        graphical tools for network meta-analysis, including network
        plots, ranked forest plots, and transitivity analyses, are also
        provided. For the synthesis analyses, the Noma-Hamura's
        improved REML (restricted maximum likelihood)-based methods
        (Noma et al. (2023) <doi:10.1002/jrsm.1652>
        <doi:10.1002/jrsm.1651>) are adopted as the default methods.
