[R-meta] Help with understanding the meta objecct

Good day everybody,

I have a question about accessing the metacor object in the meta 
package. I have a meta-analysis where before now I just used the values 
as seen in the output, e.g., in this example I reported 0.3369 as my 
effect size:

Number of studies combined: k = 88
Number of observations: o = 5306

 ??????????????????????? COR??????????? 95%-CI???? z? p-value
Fixed effect model?? 0.3301 [ 0.3052; 0.3544] 24.35 < 0.0001
Random effects model 0.3369 [ 0.2390; 0.4281]? 6.43 < 0.0001
Prediction interval???????? [-0.5375; 0.8622]

Now I want to create some custom plots where I want to use values like 
the ES from this object. However, my problem is that I cannot find the 
ES value in the list. So, I am wondering if the value is somewhow 
transformed or if I misunderstood something?

I would greatly appreciate if somebody could help me shed light on this 
problem. Thank you very much already in advance.

Kind regards,

Jan
