[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Uh that article straight up says that the studies are observational and therefore do not prove anything. Further, where does it say that all of the social or economic confounds are removed. Finally, meta analyses are subject to publication bias, the fact that studies with null findings (meaning no effect) are rarely published, and as such not available for review.[/quote] Again, please read it. The paper goes into great detail about the limitations of meta analysis and how these were addressed. And yes, SES status, smoking stays, and other known confounders were all accounted for. They even addressed publication bias. [/quote]
