Trouble replicating a simple OR table (Bayesian meta-analysis) I'm reading this intro to meta analysis from Columbia University, and I cannot replicate the Log OR in the very first table.

For the first study:
OR = (1/39)/(2/34) = .03/.06 = 0.44
Log OR = log(0.44) = -0.36
Where as the table shows -0.83. I'm puzzled. What elementary thing am I missing here?

You are taking the log to base 10. You need to take the natural log. For example, in R, the log() function does that (log10() for the log to base 10):
log((1/39)/(2/34))
[1] -0.8303483

as in the table.
