Abstract: metareg performs random-effects meta-regression on study-level summary data. This is a revised version of the program originally written by Stephen Sharp (STB-42, sbe23). The major revisions are: (1) a facility to use a Monte Carlo permutation test to obtain p-values; (2) a different algorithm for REML estimation of the between studies component of variance tau-squared.
