Estimating the bias in meta analysis estimates for continuous data with non-random missing study variance

This paper examines, analytically, the biases introduced in the meta analysis estimates when the study-level variances are missing with non-random missing mechanism (MNAR). Two common approaches in handling this problem is considered, namely, the missing variances are imputed, and the studies with m...
