# Meta-Analysis

Quantitative synthesis of results from multiple studies. Calculates pooled effect sizes, assesses heterogeneity, detects publication bias, and generates forest and funnel plots.

## When to Use

- "Combine these study results into a meta-analysis"
- "Calculate the pooled odds ratio from these trials"
- "Create a forest plot of these effect sizes"
- "Test for publication bias with a funnel plot"
- "What's the heterogeneity (I²) across these studies?"
- "Run a random-effects meta-analysis"
