Abstract
Quantitative synthesis of research results multiple small clinical trials using the statistical techniques of meta-analysis yields conclusions in excellent agreement with large randomized “mega-trails”. The present paper introduces a simple yet powerful method of meta-analysis for combining results of any published studies of a proposed treatment compared with a suitable control. These may include pre-clinical or clinical models generating either continuous or dichotomous data.
