I want to draw a meta plot with Mantel-Haenszel analysis (meta.MH) in the "rmeta" package. Is it possible to change the confidence interval? The default is 95%, but what if I want, say 99% or 90% confidence interval? I can't seem to find how to do this in the manual. Thanks.
There are multiple hardcoded "1.96"s in the code for metaplot() and summary.meta.MH(). You'd have to replace those with -qnorm((1-conf.level)/2) (== 2.576 and 1.645 for 99% resp. 90%) either manually changing the value or - better - by adding a parameter to the routines (and contributing your fixes back to the maintainer).
