You need to combine all the data into one set and add another variable, call it "dataset," with values 1 and 2. Then you can fit a model to this **one combined" dataset that has an additive term for "dataset," and, if you care to, test it for significance. However, as usual, that probably will not be of much scientific value. I contend that tests of significance mean little unless used in preplanned and appropriately powered studies. Most statisticians would probably characterize this contention as nuts, however, so feel free to ignore it.
