Arguments

...
Outputs from different function for methods of meta-analysis of microarray
type
a numeric vector idicating from which function the output is, kth element in type corresponds to kth element of .... It can be NULL, if the wrapper functions were used.
genenames
a character vector - names of all genes (or probe ID) included in meta-analysis = rownames of gene expression data matrix. It can be NULL, if the wrapper functions were used.
