#' @details Studies included in this dataset were identified through a meta-analysis of Jordan et al. (2017), which examined
#' the pooled prevalence of prescription opioid misuse among US individuals 11 to 30 years of age. The dataset is meant for
#' illustration purposes, and only contains a subset of the studies included in Jordan and colleagues' study.
#' Results are therefore not identical with the actual results of this meta-analysis, and should not be interpreted as an
#' accurate representation of the evidence.
