Note that if not specified as additional arguments, this functions sets the header argument of metafor::forest() to TRUE.

Usage

rob_forest(
  res,
  rob_tool = "ROB2",
  rob_me = NULL,
  rob_levels = NULL,
  title = NULL,
  rob_legend = TRUE,
  rob_legend_cex = 0.9,
  ...
)

Arguments

res	Output from metafor meta-analysis function
rob_tool	The risk-of-bias assessment tool used to perform the assessments
rob_me	Optional value defining the result of the Risk-Of-Bias due to Missing Evidence (ROB-ME) assessment for this synthesis. By default (rob_me = NULL), this is omitted from the plot.
rob_levels	Vector of judgments [e.g. c("Low","Some concerns","High","Critical")] that controls the ordering of subgroups within the plot
title	Text to use for plot title
rob_legend	Logical specifying whether a legend for the risk-of-bias plot should be shown. Default is TRUE.
rob_legend_cex	Expansion factor for the risk-of-bias legend
