Also, it has combined them at the level of individual data, rather than the more usual meta-analysis method of running the analysis in each study individually, and then pooling the results.
This approach can be used to complement the more usual random effects analysis as a secondary or sensitivity analysis and we consider this approach more satisfactory than performing analyses that simply omit any outliers although these analyses may also be performed if desired.
The two-moment approach can improve model accuracy over more usual Poisson network analysis methods and additionally allows the characteristics of offered load to be taken into account.
To estimate RRs from survey data instead of the more usual odds ratios, we used Poisson regression analysis with robust variance estimation.
The new analysis confirms that on a more usual definition of conviction rate – the proportion of cases prosecuted in the courts – 62.5% of rape cases ended in a conviction, eight points higher than in 2005.

That is, in the more usual univariate notation (DerSimonian and Laird, 1986), for a univariate meta-analysis where the are the reciprocals of the within-study variances and.
It is the more usual features that one needs to study and understand, using geophysics, geochemistry, isotope petrology, textural analysis and various kinds of theoretical modelling.
