[@Studious4Health]

I absolutely hate watching any 'demo' video which goes longer than 5 minutes when I'm actively trying to do a task. This is by far the best video I have ever watched, I walked away from this with so much confidence!

[@ranasalman5259]

Hi, Can you please do a video on Funnel Plot? Thanks in advance

[@muhammadnaufalhibatullah3260]

Nice video, very clear. But, anyone have youtube link or title for video that explain heterogeneity and fixed/random effect at this channel like he said before?

[@miloudiabir6384]

thank you so much for this tutorial, so useful but please what does it mean the weight of the study ?

[@mk67890]

Hi. Can you pls explain the interpretation of the z-value, how is it calculated, is it different from the z test?

[@mohamedshenawy.]

How it is homogenous and use random effect size ?
I think in homogenous we use fixed effect size only , is not ?

[@Ella-mu9kw]

very good !

[@yiyuanzhang6335]

Who else came here after watching/listening to James Wilks & Chris Kresser's Game Changers Debate on Joe Rogan and just wanted to make sure he understands how to read forest plots? 😂

[@judohit76]

Thank you very much for this tutorial video. Allow me to ask one question. What does it mean when the Std, Mean difference is not estimable? I came across that problem recently and i dont know how to interpret it. Thank you in advance

[@rakhichandran8564]

What about pooled prevalence..can you explain it too?

[@hunta7078]

[@sheilaschneiberg]

[@shathaomar1516]

How to perform sensitivity test for subgroup analysis please?

[@ABIBX]

Thank u a lot 💗!! But how can we know if it’s risky or protective ? 😰

[@nonenone6357]

How do you know which one is the first group?

[@honeydejan7696]

Can we compute for RR, ARR, NNT on continuous effect size?

[@thisumamarasinghe8171]

thnx❤

[@kmd6992]

Thanks for this informative video. By the way, regarding heterogeneity, does that mean of the heterogeneity p value is greater than the established p value (0.05) then that makes it low heterogeneity?

[@stephanyyasmine5047]

Hi. Can you tell which article is used in apresentation?

[@vasilis1963]

You are saying studies 1,3,4,6 are not statistically significant. But they contribute to the making of the "diamond". Ok I know the diamond is not crossing the "no effect line" but it is made up of some studies that cross it. So what happens with that? Is a diamond like that valid?
