Meta analysis is a widely used tool, but it is subject to error and bias.
Benbrook has shown how the Stanford study has fallen prey to this weakness, but this does not mean that all studies that have used meta-analysis come up short. If Benbrook's use of meta-analysis has produced erroneous results in his studies, it would have to be shown

As for the "math trick" ..... this was a term used by a reporter from Huffington Post to describe the shortcomings of the analysis used. All one need do is read the links.

According to Benbrook's review, there were 5% of ~80 organic samples with a detectable pesticide concentration and there were 33% of 4000+ non-organic samples. Benbrook believes the difference in precentages shold be converted to another percentage while the study merely subtracts one percentage from the other to give a differential percentage. This is the "math trick" discussion.
