Thanks, Michael!

Yes, I vaguely remember that the metafor package can calculate the PIs 
but most of our analyses rely on the meta package. On the other hand, 
this might be a good reason to finally switch to metafor.

You probably refer to the function addpoly() which can be used for that. 
I will check it out.

Again, thanks for your help,

Bernd
