Forest Plot for Meta-Analysis

Plots estimated effect sizes for all studies.

plot_forest(
  meta,
  from,
  to,
  shrinked = "random",
  summary = c("mean", "hpd"),
  mar = c(4.5, 12, 4, 0.3),
  cex.axis = 1,
  ...
)

Arguments

meta: fitted meta-analysis model
from: lower limit of the x-axis
to: upper limit of the x-axis
shrinked: which meta-analysis model should be used to show (shrinked) estimates of the study effect sizes. The name must match the corresponding name in the list meta. Can be suppressed by shrinked = ""
summary: character vector with two values: first, either "mean" or "50%"; and second, either highest-probability-density interval "hpd" or the Bayesian credibility interval "bci".
mar: margin of the plot in the order c(bottom, left, top, right) (see par)
cex.axis: size of the y-axis annotation for the labels of studies.
...: arguments passed to plot (e.g., from, to)
