An adjusted random-effects model for binary-data meta-analysis

Baker, RD

Abstract

A new model with a variable size of random effect
is introduced for the meta-analysis of 2 times 2 tables.
The random-effects parameter has a simple interpretation in terms of sample size and offers a new measure of heterogeneity.
