Description: User-friendly general package providing standard methods
        for meta-analysis and supporting Schwarzer, Carpenter, and
        Rücker <DOI:10.1007/978-3-319-21416-0>, "Meta-Analysis with R"
        (2015): - common effect and random effects meta-analysis; -
        several plots (forest, funnel, Galbraith / radial, L'Abbe,
        Baujat, bubble); - three-level meta-analysis model; -
        generalised linear mixed model; - logistic regression with
        penalised likelihood for rare events; - Hartung-Knapp method
        for random effects model; - Kenward-Roger method for random
        effects model; - prediction interval and density of the
        prediction distribution; - expected proportion of comparable
        studies with clinically important benefit or harm; -
        statistical tests for funnel plot asymmetry; - trim-and-fill
        method to evaluate bias in meta-analysis; - meta-regression; -
        cumulative meta-analysis and leave-one-out meta-analysis; -
        import data from 'RevMan 5'; - produce forest plot summarising
        several (subgroup) meta-analyses.
