Read the whole abstract. They showed which studies reached statistical significance on their own.
You could just read those studies and ignore the meta-analyses if you want.
I honestly don't understand this current trend of assuming meta-analyses are inherently incorrect and cherry-picking the worst study as the source of the truth.
- natechols 5y agoIt's not the meta-analysis part that's the biggest red flag, it's "a total of 113 subjects". That's the size of a Phase I trial, and the road to Phase III and clinical approval has a crazy high attrition rate.
