meta-regression

hi, I'm relatively new to stata and I'm running a meta-analysis of proportions in STATA 12 SE and then, doing a metaregression by the following commands: 1. metaprop var2 var3, random cimethod(exact): which generates _ES (effect size) and _seES (standard error of effect size) for the next...

Good morning, I'm struggling to fit a satisfactory model to a data set I have resulting from a systematic review. I performed a systematic review of estimated $ valuations of grasslands and the services they provide. All grasslands provide all services, but some studies only value one of...

Novice STATA user here... I ran a meta-regression to analyze how prevalence rates of personality disorders vary according to differences in study design (e.g., gender of participants m/f). In order to see if there is enough variability within each of my dependent variables (10 different...
