Dear R users:

In the example of meta-analysis (cochrane, package rmeta), I can not
found the p-value of Test for overall effect, and some other indices
(Z, I, weight and et al). How can I get the these indices listed?

Another (smarter(?)) alternative is to ask yourself *why* you need Z and
p. Z is just a computing device allowing you to use a known density. And
the real meaning of p and its usefulness has been discussed, disputed
and fought over at exceedingly large lengths in the past 80 years.

The $MHtest component of the object (for Mantel-Haenszel) or $test component 
otherwise, has the test statistic and p-value.
