metacp: a versatile software package for combining dependent or independent p-values
Compared to other similar packages (like poolr or metap), metacp implements the largest collection of statistical methods for this problem, offering users the flexibility to choose from a wide variety of approaches. Being available both as a standalone Python tool and as a STATA command, metacp is accessible to a broad and diverse audience, including practitioners conducting meta-analyses across various fields and bioinformaticians developing new tools where p-value combination is a crucial component.
