Longitudinal data had intrinsic correlation problems at different time points, and traditional meta-analysis techniques cannot resolve this problem. Regression coefficients based on multi-level models can fully consider the correlations of longitudinal data at various time points. This paper uses SAS software to perform multi-level regression coefficient model meta-analysis and provides programming code which is simple and easy to operate.
