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.


"Your software is very convenient and useful for systematic reviewers. I used this software to conduct Cochrane systematic review and also helped several postgraduates at University of Ottawa for their research on environmental toxicology and epidemiology. Their manuscripts were all accepted by the internal peer‐reviewed journals."

"I have really enjoyed using the CMA software. Comprehensive Meta‐Analysis makes performing a metaanalysis incredibly straightforward. There are numerous options for data analysis and presentation of results. The software was easy to learn, the tutorials were truly useful, and the staff at CMA were always helpful. My meta‐analysis using your software has recently been published – Calcif Tissue Int. 2010 Sep;87(3):193‐202. Epub 2010 Jun 15."
