Improving the error rates of the Begg and Mazumdar test for publication bias in fixed effects meta-analysis

BACKGROUND: The rank correlation test introduced by Begg and Mazumdar is extensively used in meta-analysis to test for publication bias in clinical and epidemiological studies. It is based on correlating the standardized treatment effect with the variance of the treatment effect using Kendall’s tau...
