forest_plot {MetaStan}

Plot a forest plot

Description

Takes a meta_stan object which is obtained by function meta_stan and plot a forestplot, showing individual estimates along with their 95 percent credible intervals, resulting effect estimate and prediction interval.

Usage

forest_plot(
  x = NULL,
  labels = NULL,
  digits = 2,
  boxsize = 0.3,
  heterogeneity = TRUE,
  col,
  ...
)

Arguments

x

A meta_stan object.

labels

Optional vector with labels for the studies (publication author/year).

digits

A numerical value specifying the number of significant digits to be shown. Default is 2.

boxsize

A numerical value specifying the box size. Default is 0.3.

heterogeneity

A logical value to include heterogeneity estimates (DEFAULT = TRUE)

col

A function specifying the colors. See forestplot::fpColors for details.

...

Further arguments passed to or from other methods.
