I am highly interested in contributing as a co-author to this meta-analysis project. I have experience in systematic reviews and meta-analyses, particularly in literature review, summary finding tables, ROB, data extraction and statistical analysis. My expertise includes screening and selecting studies, summarizing findings , and conducting reviews. I am proficient in working with literature databases such as PubMed, Scopus, and Cochrane Library, with an understanding of search strategies and study selection. I have experience with OR, RR, HR and other types of data, heterogeneity assessment, and publication bias evaluation. I am confident in my ability to contribute meaningfully to this project.
