- Inverse-Variance Weighting
- And a fixed-effect pool applied across heterogeneous sources reports an interval far too narrow, because the reciprocals-add rule assumes the disagreement is all noise.
This sourceExplains that fixed-effect meta-analysis treats observed study differences as chance and can yield a confidence interval that is meaningless and too narrow when effects are heterogeneous.

Verification¶
Does it exist? Not checked yet. This entry carries no identifier to resolve. It was extracted from the citation as written in the article, normalized, and deduplicated against the rest of the registry.
Does it back the claim? Not recorded. The single citation of this work carries no recorded support check.
Support is checked per citation rather than per work — the same source can be cited soundly in one article and wrongly in another. Per-citation recording began recently, so a citation with no recorded check is a gap in the record rather than evidence it went unchecked.
