Abstract. This article describes updates of the meta-analysis command metan and
options that have been added since the command’s original publication
(Bradburn, Deeks, and Altman, metan — an alternative meta-analysis
command,
Stata Technical Bulletin Reprints, vol. 8, pp. 86–100). These include
version 9 graphics with flexible display options, the ability to
meta-analyze precalculated effect estimates, and the ability to analyze
subgroups by using the by() option. Changes to the output, saved
variables, and saved results are also described.
