SPRE Statistics for Exploring Heterogeneity in Meta-Analysis

v0.2.0 · May 8, 2021 · MIT + file LICENSE

Description

An implementation of SPRE (standardised predicted random-effects) statistics in R to explore heterogeneity in genetic association meta- analyses, as described by Magosi et al. (2019) <doi:10.1093/bioinformatics/btz590>. SPRE statistics are precision weighted residuals that indicate the direction and extent with which individual study-effects in a meta-analysis deviate from the average genetic effect. Overly influential positive outliers have the potential to inflate average genetic effects in a meta-analysis whilst negative outliers might lower or change the direction of effect. See the 'getspres' website for documentation and examples <https://magosil86.github.io/getspres/>.
