Core Tip	In meta-analysis of bivariate P value, keeping the inherent paired structure and thus reserving the correlation between the each member of the paired P-values is critical. In this work, we propose a novel meta-analysis technique which does keep this paired structure intact and thus results in much more favorable sensitivity and specificity characteristics compared to the existing method by George and Mudholkar’ (1983), which treats the P value as independent.
