#' Example data for a meta-analysis of dichotomous outcomes: Exercise-based cardiac rehabilitation
#'
#' A dataset consisting of 14 empirical studies used for a meta-analysis in
#' Anderson et al. (2016). The outcome of interest was risk of hospital admission of patients
#' with coronary heart disease within follow up duration. Compared was
#' exercise-based cardiac rehabilitation (treatment) with usual care (control).
#'
#' @format A data frame with 14 rows and 15 variables:
#' \describe{
#'   \item{study_name}{short name of each study}
#'   \item{year}{publication year of each study}
#'   \item{ai}{number of patients in the treatment group with an event (hospital admission) for each study.}
#'   \item{bi}{number of patients in the treatment group with no event for each study.}
#'   \item{ci}{number of patients in the control group with an event (hospital admission) for each study.}
#'   \item{di}{number of patients in the control group with no event for each study.}
#'   \item{n1i}{number of patients in the treatment group for each study, (ai + bi).}
#'   \item{n2i}{number of patients in the control group for each study, (ci + di).}
#'   \item{rr}{relative risk of an event for treatment vs. control, (ai/n1i)/(ci/n2i).}
#'   \item{or}{odds ratio of an event for treatment vs. control, (ai*di)/(bi*ci).}
#'   \item{logrr}{natural logarithm of the relative risk (\code{rr}) for meta-analysis.}
#'   \item{logrr_se}{standard error of the natural logarithm of the relative risk for meta-analysis, sqrt(1/ai + 1/ci - 1/(ai + bi) - 1/(ci + di)).}
#'   \item{logor}{natural logarithm of the odds ratio (\code{or}) for meta-analysis.}
#'   \item{logor_se}{standard error of the natural logarithm of the odds ratio for meta-analysis, sqrt(1/ai + 1/bi +1/ci + 1/di).}
#'   \item{followup}{dichotomous moderator: follow up duration.}
