HIGHLIGHTS

• who: Dankmar Böhning from the University of Southampton, Southampton, UK have published the Article: Some general points on the -measure of heterogeneity in meta-analysis, in the Journal: (JOURNAL)
• what: The authors show that s is asymptotically identical to the of the study-specific variances and for any number of studies is at least as large as the with the inequality being sharp if all study-specific variances agree. In Fig 1, the authors examine log(s 2 /σ̄ 2 ) in dependence on k.
