Meta-analyses have become an increasingly popular method of drawing conclusions when there are multiple publications addressing a particular topic.

Readers must understand the objective and subjective components of meta-analysis to properly evaluate these types of analyses. © 2011 by American Society for Reproductive Medicine.
