[R-meta] Meta-analysis with only p.values and N?
Thanks for your inputs, after checking all the possibilities, I am afraid that we cannot do the forest plot because we don't have all the needed input data.

Those methods have their uses but if Raquel wants a forest plot I do not think they generate the required effect size with its confidence interval. Michael

Dear Raquel,
in Boerenstein et al. 2009 (Handbook) there is a description of a
method to combine p values for a pooled p value. Maybe that would be a solution?

Dear Raquel
If you have the means or the difference in means as well then you can
back-calculate what you need but if not I am afraid I can see no way
forward although other smarter list readers may be able to help.
