"The distinguishing feature of the Comprehensive Meta‐Analysis Software Programme from the other Meta‐Analysis Software Programmes is to be most practical and to be understandable easily. While using the programme the only thing should be done is to enter the necessary data into the data sheet and to click on the relevant buttons. That's all. No need to calculate the statistical formulas by hand to reach the effect sizes, anymore. I would like to send my special thanks to you and your team from Ankara University, Ankara‐Turkey, Sevgi Guney, MSc in ClinPsych, MAPS"

"The program in Comparative Effectiveness and Outcomes Research at Duke University conducts multiple systematic reviews and meta‐analyses each year for professional organizations as well as under both federal and industry sponsored research initiatives. While we use various programs tailored for specific individual projects including those developed in‐house, we have found Comprehensive Meta‐Analysis (CMA) to be a very facile, adaptable and yet comprehensive package meeting the needs for much of our research and generating publication‐quality graphics. My confidence in the analytic algorithms is buoyed by my knowledge of several of the developers of CMA and based on extensive comparison of results with other algorithms including our own. CMA is also an exceptional educational tool and universally embraced by trainees and young investigators initiating careers in evidence‐based medicine and statistical analysis."
