[R-meta] Extracting pooled rma.mv model summary statistics after multiple imputation

[Viechtbauer, Wolfgang (SP)]

Hi Tom,

Could you provide a minimal and fully reproducible example (see: https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-sig-meta-analysis) that can be used to discuss this? Right now, it's not entirely clear to me where exactly you are stuck.

Best,
Wolfgang
