DOI: 10.1002/sim.10157
Abstract: Meta‐analysis is an essential tool to comprehensively synthesize and quantitatively evaluate results of multiple clinical studies in evidence‐based medicine. In many meta‐analyses, the characteristics of some studies might markedly differ from those of the others,… read more here.

DOI: 10.1101/cshperspect.a040493
Abstract: Major biotechnological advances have facilitated a tremendous boost to the collection of (gen-/transcript-/prote-/methyl-/metabol-)omics data in very large sample sizes worldwide. Coordinated efforts have yielded a deluge of studies associating diseases with genetic markers (genome-wide association… read more here.

DOI: 10.1111/2041-210x.14310
Abstract: The size and shape of niche spaces or trait spaces are often analysed using hypervolumes estimated from data. The hypervolume R package has previously supported such analyses via descriptive but not inferential statistics. This gap… read more here.
