Where studies are sufficiently homogeneous, trial results will be synthesised using a fixed-effects meta-analysis.

In RCTs, the legitimate aim of applying often strict eligibility criteria is to obtain a homogeneous trial population with minimum noise.

Also, the fact that our study relates to the inclusion of a large sample of clinic patients with a broad range of disease activity, disease duration, treatment strategies, and comorbidities, rather than more homogeneous trial populations, allows insights into the routine care of RA patients.

On the other hand, using more homogeneous trials could solve this difficulty, but it could induce selection bias.

Combining results from clinically homogeneous trials in a meta-analysis gives an accurate estimate of the extent of the analgesic effect when sufficient numbers of patients have been randomized [ 4, 5].

In a next step, brain regions were identified that revealed priming effects by calculating F-tests for the contrasts of the RT regressors for heterogeneous minus homogeneous trials (i.e. SEM_HET > SEM_HOM, SYN_HET > SYN_HOM, PHO_HET > PHO_HOM).
