Performance of between-study heterogeneity measures in the Cochrane Library.
The growth in comparative effectiveness research and evidence-based medicine has increased attention to systematic reviews and meta-analyses. Assessing heterogeneity is critical for performing a meta-analysis and interpreting results. This article evaluates two heterogeneity measures. To evaluate these measures' performance empirically, the investigators applied them to 20,599 meta-analyses in the Cochrane Library.
