Abstract
The number of published meta-analyses in medicine has had phenomenal growth, to a point where over 300 meta-analyses in medicine are published yearly. Because meta-analyses tend to lead to policy decisions, it is extremely important that the analyses be robust and that alternative analyses yield consistent results. We herein provide a discussion of diagnostic statistical procedures.Mesh:
