  1. 1= Number of studies used to calculate effect size, 2= Cohen’s d effect size, 3= Standard Error, 4=Total number of subjects in opioid exposed cohort ,5= Lower limit of the 95% confidence interval for the effect size,6= Upper limit of the 95% confidence interval for the effect size, 7= Q statistic: A test of homogeneity, 8= Probability that Q statistics significantly diff than 0, 9= One sample Z Statistic, 10= Probability that Z Statistics, is significantly diff than 0, 11= I² statistics,12= Fail Safe N: a measure of publication bias, n/p= not possible since one needs more than 2 studies to perform this analysis, * All neuropsychological domains had fixed effects model employed except *1 where a random effect model was employed.
