Meta-Analizi ve Bir Uygulama

Bu çalışmada, meta-analizi ve meta-analizinde oldukça önemli olan etki büyüklüğü, etki büyüklüklerinin birleştirilmesi ve homojenlik konularına değinilmiştir. Uygulamada ise retroperitoneal sarkomlarla ilgili, yayınlanmış 16 makale verileri incelenip meta-analizi yapılmıştır.

Meta-Analysis and an Application

In this study, meta-analysis and effect size, combining effet sizes and homogeneity subjects which are very important in meta-analysis are investigated. Meta-analysis is applied to data from 16 papers about retroperitoneal sarcomas.
