Empirical Size/Power of the six tests, likelihood ratio for Beta-Binomial (LRBB), likelihood ratio for Gamma-Beta (LRGB), fixed effects Mantel Hansel with 0 imputation () and with 0.5 imputation (), DerSimonian-Laird random effects with 0.5 imputation (), Peto’s method with fixed (PF) and random effects (PR), fully Bayesian approach (FB), as well as the fixed (Fix) relative risk approach with Gamma baseline for three settings: (a) eτi = 1; (b) eτi ~ Gamma(66.5, 50); and (c) eτi ~ Gamma(0.665, 0.5).
