Adjusting for publication bias in meta-analysis with continuous outcomes: a comparative study

Osama Almalik

Abstract Publication bias has been a problem facing meta-analysts. Methods adjusting for publication bias have been proposed in the literature. Comparative studies for methods adju…

Combining dependent p-values resulting from multiple effect size homogeneity tests in meta-analysis for binary outcomes

Osama Almalik

Testing effect size homogeneity is an essential part when conducting a meta-analysis. Comparative studies of effect size homogeneity tests in case of binary outcomes are found in t…

A bivariate likelihood approach for estimation of a pooled continuous effect size from a heteroscedastic meta-analysis study

Osama Almalik, Edwin R. van den Heuvel

The DerSimonian-Laird (DL) weighted average method has been widely used for estimation of a pooled effect size from an aggregated data meta-analysis study. It is mainly criticized…

Copas' method is sensitive to different mechanisms of publication bias

Osama Almalik, Zhuozhao Zhan, Edwin R. van den Heuvel

Copas' method corrects a pooled estimate from an aggregated data meta-analysis for publication bias. Its performance has been studied for one particular mechanism of publication bi…
