Forestplot using the metan command

[Michalis Katsoulis]

Hi,

How can I create a forestplot using the metan command, in which the x range will be from 0.4 to 4.1, but the values displayed from the xlabel will be 0.5, 1, 2, and 4? (I’m presenting odds ratios, so I use eform)

The only thing I can do is either use the force command, but then I have to specify in xlabel points before 0.5 and after 4, (otherwise some ORs are not shown). If I don’t use the force command, then everything shrinks.

Thanks

Which version of Stata you are using? The recent version Stata-16 has its own 'meta' suit for meta analyses which is easy to use and forestplots/funnel plots are easy to create too after a model is fitted.
