Only bins with p value for average rank ≤0.05 in the weighted analyses are shown. Three heterogeneity statistics (Q, Ha, and B) are shown as described by Zintzaras and Ioannidis.⁽¹⁷⁾ For heterogeneity, left-sided p < 0.05 signifies low heterogeneity and left-sided p ≥ 0.95 (right-sided p < 0.05) signifies high heterogeneity. The relative weights for the included studies are as follows: 0.21 for S2, 0.08 for S3, 0.14 for S4, 0.32 for S5, 0.12 for S8, and 0.13 for S9.

^*Heterogeneity metrics restricted for the average rank statistic of the pertinent bin.

p_ord, p value for the p_ord statistic; p_rank, p value for average rank.
