[R-meta] metafor - averaging over rma result

Dear experts, 

for a meta-analysis, we calculated the variability ratio (VR) of all included studies
using the rma function of the metafor package.

We would like to plot the results in a forest plot grouped by disorder for a less 
busy presentation (compared to plotting the VR for every study).

Yet, averaging over the VRs, especially over the confidence intervals seems
worrying.

Do you have any suggestions?

Thank you, 
Stephanie
