Triangulating meta-analyses: the example of the serotonin transporter gene, stressful life events and major depression.

BMC psychology - 31 May 2016

Taylor Amy E, Munafò Marcus R

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Meta-analysis is intended as a tool for the objective synthesis of evidence across a literature, in order to obtain the best evidence as to whether or not an association or effect is robust. However, as the use of meta-analysis has proliferated it has become increasingly clear that the results of a meta-analysis can be critically sensitive to methodological and analytical choices, so that different...
