Numerical data for the calculations are as presented by Lehrnbecher et al.3 

ORf indicates fixed-effects odds ratio; ORf, random-effects odds ratio; SLE, systemic lupus erythematosus; HIT, heparin-induced thrombocytopenia; and ITP, idiopathic thrombocytopenic purpura.

*

P value for the Q statistic testing for between-study heterogeneity of the odds ratios; heterogeneity is typically considered statistically significant for P < .10.
