Thread-topic: [S] Meta-analysis
I have code to do 1-way random and fixed effects meta-analysis, with
adjustment for publication bias (method Duval and Tweedie, 2000).  I
also have confidence intervals coded for the heterogeneity parameter
(following Biggerstaff and Tweedie, 1997, and my own technical report
extending this and referenced and evaluated in Higgins and Thompson
2002).  I do not have coded the possibility for covariates, so if you
need to do this, my code won't work.

Let me know if you'd like the code.
