Table 4 Comparison of results from the EAE example. Comparison of numbers of genes in common declared significant (i.e., significantly differentially expressed) by the observed experiments, the SLR-based fixed effects and random effects meta-analyses, and the previously proposed P-value-based meta-analysis [2]. Each experiment (and meta-analysis) had the False Discovery Rate (FDR) controlled at 0.05.
