The role of complement in arterial hypertension and hypertensive end organ damage.

TL;DR: The role of complement in hypertension and hypertensive end organ damage is reviewed to suggest it may drive the pathology of hypertension through its effects on innate and adaptive immune responses, aside from direct effects on the vasculature.

Bias in meta-analysis detected by a simple, graphical test

TL;DR: Funnel plots, plots of the trials' effect estimates against sample size, are skewed and asymmetrical in the presence of publication bias and other biases Funnel plot asymmetry, measured by regression analysis, predicts discordance of results when meta-analyses are compared with single large trials.

Quantifying heterogeneity in a meta‐analysis

TL;DR: It is concluded that H and I2, which can usually be calculated for published meta-analyses, are particularly useful summaries of the impact of heterogeneity, and one or both should be presented in publishedMeta-an analyses in preference to the test for heterogeneity.
