[R-meta] Forest plot with subplots
Dear Roberto Generating customisable graphics functions is very hard and not surprisingly there are a number of different packages (listed in the CRAN Task View) including some with the range of meta-analysis functions (like meta and metafor) and some stand alone ones (like forestmodel and forestplot). So if one does not do exactly what you want you may need to try another. Michael

Dear Gerta, Thank you very much for your information. I will try it out. Bw Roberto 2018-01-17 12:27 GMT+01:00 Gerta Ruecker <ruecker at imbi.uni-freiburg.de>:
Dear Roberto, You may use the R package meta https://cran.r-project.org/web /packages/meta/index.html . Depending on the type of your data, meta-analysis is done using one of the functions metabin() (binary data), metacont (continuous data), metagen (generic data, given effect estiamte and its standard error) and futher functions, see https://cran.r-project.org/web/packages/meta/meta.pdf (or type help(package = "meta")). Subgroup analyses can be done using the argument byvar, see, for example, help(metabin). Forest plots applied to a meta object where byvar has been used then show subplots as desired. For a simple example, see attached. Best, Gerta Am 17.01.2018 um 11:05 schrieb P. Roberto Bakker:
Hi,
I am performing meta-analyses of different medication groups, and would
like to create one forest plot containing subplots of the separate
meta-analysis per group, and the total result of all meta-analyses.
How can I create this?
Thank you in advance,
Roberto
