similar to: combined value in forestplot function

Hi, It is known that the area of square plotted by forestplot is proportional to the studies' weights. But since there is not weight parameter in forestplot function, how does this function proportion the area of each square based on the related study's weight? Look forward to your reply, Carol [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

Dear all, I could not draw a forest plot for meta-analysis under ramdon models using the rmeta package. The rmeta has a default function for MH (fixed-effect) model. Has the rmeta package been updated for such a function? Or someone revised it and kept a private code? I would appreciate it if you could provide some information on this question. Thanks, Andrew This email is intended

I know there is a function forestplot from rmeta package and also the plot.meta from the meta package and maybe others, but they are rather complicated with extra plot parameters that I do not need and also they process only objects created with other package functions. But I wonder if anyone has a much simpler function using the basic plot to make a forestplot with only a median (or mean) and

Dear R users: In the example of meta-analysis (cochrane, package rmeta), I can not found the p-value of Test for overall effect, and some other indices (Z, I, weight and et al). How can I get the these indices listed? > library(rmeta) > data(cochrane) > cochrane name ev.trt n.trt ev.ctrl n.ctrl 1 Auckland 36 532 60 538 2 Block 1 69 5

Hi All, I have been able to modify the x-axis to start at zero by adding xlow and xhigh parameters; that was pretty simple. I have been unable to find the location of the code that would turn off the information weighting of the box size (I have smaller randomized trials getting less weight than a much larger non-randomized trial). The function is forestplot() from rmeta. Thanks for any

Dear R users, I would like to adjust the x axis the way I wanted using "forestplot(labeltext, mean, lower, upper, align = NULL, xlab = "", zero = 0, graphwidth = unit(2, "inches"), col = meta.colors(), xlog = FALSE)". I tried using xaxt="n" and then redefine the axis using axis(1, at=c(0,0.5,1.0 ,1.5,2.0,2.5),label=c(0,0.5,1.0,1.5,2.0,2.5)), but it

Dear R users, I am trying to create a forest plot with a table of text using the forestplot() function in the rmeta package. I have been trying to reduce the font size of the resulting table of text, but have not been successful. I have tried adding options like 'cex' or 'font' but none of them seem to work. Is there anything I could do? This is what I have so far:

All, I am using the forestplot function in rmeta. I was able to modify the x axis range by commenting out one line and feeding it two new parameters (I wanted to set zero as the axis start point). #xrange <- c(max(min(lower, na.rm = TRUE), clip[1]), min(max(upper, na.rm = TRUE), clip[2])) #new line xrange <- c(xlow,xhigh) Now I am trying to modify the text font size for

Hi, I have a problem with the metaplot-function in rmeta. After plotting a Forest Plot with "metaplot", no y-axis is shown for normal plots anymore. Does someone know, why this is and how I can solve it? Thank you in advance!

It seems that there is a problem in displaying subtitle in general, independently from multi-plot display. when I do plot (c(1,2,3), c(9,8,7), type = "l") title(main = "Main title", sub ="Sub title",cex.main=2, cex.sub = 2) subtitle doesn't get displayed > --- On Sat, 11/21/09, David Winsemius <dwinsemius at comcast.net> > wrote: >

Hello, It might be an easy question but if you have many variables to fit in the lm function, how do you take all without specifying var1+var2+...+var2100 in the terms parameter in response ~ terms? Cheers, Carol

Hi, What is the function for inverse normal transformation? Thanks, Carol [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

Hi, I got problem in using title function to create a title for multiple plots presented together by par. As can be seen in the attached file, the title is displayed truncated and the subtitle doesn't get displayed. Here is the code: par(mfrow = c(1,2)) plot(c(1,2,3), c(9,8,7)) plot(c(1,2,3), c(9,8,7)) title(main = "Main title", sub ="Sub title",outer = TRUE,

Hi, How to plot the same types of graphics on the same R graphic device? Suppose that we want to plot a vector y against x (using plot for instance). How is it possible to plot y against x for different values of these two vectors on the same device so that the plots could be compared? Cheers, Carol [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

Dear R-list, I'd like to do a meta-analysis plot similar to install.packages('rmeta') require(rmeta) data(catheter) a <- meta.MH(n.trt, n.ctrl, col.trt, col.ctrl, data=catheter, names=Name, subset=c(13,6,5,3,7,12,4,11,1,8,10,2)) summary(a) plot(a) (see attached file) by using my own OR (Odds Ratio) and 95% Confidence Interval data set, which looks like

Have UI that simplifies running code from another (internal) package, allowing user to set values on fields I basically grabbed from results of calls to formals() for various functions. That works fine for the most part. But it was requested to investigate some type of popup help or something for each field. Since I already wrote the information in the dot-Rd files for what should be displayed,

Dear All, I tried to invoke plot for a matrix of?196475 x2 dimension. I loaded the data with read.table. On one dimension, there are strings (names) and on the other dimension, the floats between 0 and 1. When I invoked plot by setting x to names and y to floats and ylim = c(0,1), I got the following error message: Error in rep.int(boxwex, n) : negative length vectors are not allowed Does it

Hi, We could use qqplot to see how two distributions are different from each other. To show better how they are different (departs from the straight line), how is it possible to plot the straight line that goes through them? I am looking for some thing like qqline for qqnorm. I thought of abline but how to determine the slope and intercept? Best wishes, Carol
