Comprehensive Meta-Analysis

Comprehensive Meta-Analysis (CMA) is a powerful computer program for meta-analysis. The program combines ease of use with a wide array of computational options and sophisticated graphics.


"Comprehensive Meta-Analysis software is a user-friendly advanced program that assists researchers and academics to synthesize various and multiple primary studies on a specific area of interest. Also, a very well written book accompanies the software that guides even junior investigators step-by-step. Mathematics are well explained using simple language. It can be used as an encyclopedia for getting answers to every day questions. CMA outperforms any other software. It is a must-have and use for every researcher."

Anastasia A. Mallidou, PhD - Associate Faculty member Faculty of Nursing, University of Alberta Edmonton, Alberta, Canada


"CMA is an incredible software package for the novice and experienced researcher alike. It offers a sophisticated array of analytical techniques, yet retains the flexibility to adapt to your specific application. The interface is intuitive and user‐friendly, and frees the user to focus on the analysis rather than the software. I use CMA in my graduate biostatistics course and recommend it to all of my faculty colleagues as well. The software is a joy to use!"
