In systematic reviews and meta-analyses, time-to-event outcomes were mostly analysed using hazard ratios (HR). It was neglected transformation of the data so that some wrong outcomes were gained. This study introduces how to use Stata and R software to calculate the HR correctly if the report presents HR and confidence intervals were gained.
