Is that "net" extracted from all published experiments, i.e. in some meta syntheses? And is statistically significance calculated in each individual experiment?

Publication bias toward positive results should be detectable via methods such as funnel plots.
If you've looked into these aspects it would make interesting reading.

You can find excesses in both individual experiments and meta-analyses, IIRC.

Funnel plots have notoriously low statistical power, it would require only a little publication bias to produce excesses, and asymmetry in a funnel plot can be due to other reasons.
Dean Radin has published a lot on this topic. He has an interesting list of selected publications 1. A number of meta analysis are listed there. His book "The Conscious Universe" discusses many of the meta analysis in detail. Facinating stuff. He addresses the file drawer effect in depth.
