Abstract. This paper presents a command, glst, for trend estimation across
different exposure levels for either single or multiple summarized
case–control, incidence-rate, and cumulative incidence data. This
approach is based on constructing an approximate covariance estimate for the
log relative risks and estimating a corrected linear trend using generalized
least squares. For trend analysis of multiple studies, glst can
estimate fixed- and random-effects metaregression models.
