[R-meta] Adding a 0.5 continuity correction

Tharaka S. Priyadarshana 
Hello, everyone,

Is it a common practice to add a 0.5 continuity correction for zero cells
when measuring MD or SMD as the outcome measure?
I have seen people use it when the outcome is measured as the RR or ROM,
but not sure is it applicable when the outcome is measured as MD or SMD.

Thank you,
Tharaka
