forest_metalr: Forest plot for likeliihood ratio based meta-analysis.

In cnodes/metalr: Likelihood ratio meta-analysis

Description

The function plots confidence limits of traditional 95% CIs and 95% ICIs for the studies included in the meta-analysis as well as confidence bars associated with the overall effect estimates.

Usage

forest_metalr(metalr_obj)

Arguments

metalr_obj

An abject from the metalr functions metalr_or() or metalr_rr(). The metalr object is a list of results computed by the metalr functions which includes a dataframe of mle of the effect estimates and their corresponding 95% CIs and ICIs. See the example below.

Value

Returns a forest plot of the 95% CIs and 95% ICIs.
