A Nonparametric “Trim and Fill” Method of Accounting for Publication Bias in Meta-Analysis
Abstract
Meta-analysis collects and synthesizes results from individual studies to estimate an overall effect size. If published studies are chosen, say through a literature review, then an inherent selection bias may arise, because, for example, studies may tend to be published more readily if they are statistically significant, or deemed to be more “interesting” in terms of the impact of their outcomes. We develop a simple rank-based data augmentation technique, formalizing the use of funnel plots, to estimate and adjust for the numbers and outcomes of missing studies. Several nonparametric estimators are proposed for the number of missing studies, and their properties are developed analytically and through simulations. We apply the method to simulated and epidemiological datasets and show that it is both effective and consistent with other criteria in the literature.

In the citing paper
“Like many systematic reviews, our meta‐analyses used the trim‐and‐fill procedure to explore whether publication bias might be affecting the results and to estimate how the reported effects would change if the bias were to be removed (Duval & Tweedie, 2000; Duval, 2005).”
From Hot spots policing of small geographic areas effects on crime (2019) · cites this paper as Duval & Tweedie, 2000
In the citing paper
“When we encountered publication bias, we conducted a trim and fill adjusted analysis 25 to remove the most extreme small studies from the positive side of the funnel plot, and recalculated the effect size iteratively, until the funnel plot was symmetrical around the (new) effect size.”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
