8 Appendix 3: Statistical appendix Where possible, we used the summary data provided in studies, contacting authors in an attempt to obtain further information if necessary. In some cases, we needed to calculate odds ratios and 95% confidence intervals from case control and familybased studies. For case control studies, we used the normal approximation of the Mantel-Haenszel statistic. When there was a zero in the contingency table we added 0.5 to every number. For family-based studies, we considered transmission of possible alleles A and B from parents to an affected offspring in a trio setting; the ratio of transmitted A and untransmitted B alleles (T) to untransmitted A and transmitted B alleles (U) could then be interpreted as an odds ratio and were calculated as follows: OR =T/U. The standard error of these odds ratios were calculated using the formula: E (logor)= (1/T+1/U). Two examples are reproduced in the table below. a b c d e f g h i Example T U Ratio TUR (T/U) (a2/b2) Log TUR 1.34 (lnc2) SE log TUR 0.34 Wortel (1/a2 + 1/b2) LCL UCL OR Confidence intervals 1.97 Exp (d2-1.96*e2) 7,42 Exp (d * e2) 04 (02 to 07) (02 to 04) Meta-analyses were undertaken, where appropriate, using random effects modeling. In the case of identifying significant heterogeneity (I 2 >40%), we sought to investigate the sources of this using a priori defined sensitivity/subgroup analyses. Assessments of the risk of publication bias were undertaken visually using funnel plots.
