Funnel plots for one arm proportion meta analysis

[ryan melo]

Hi,

I am performing an one-arm proportion metanalysis of incidence studies.

Using this command "metan numberofevents totalpersonyear, proportion random label(namevar=study, yearvar=year) denominator(100000) transform(ftukey)"

The metaanalysis works fine, however, I am struggling with finding a command to perform small study effect analysis. Tried to look up help for funnel plots but I have not yet achieved success.


Could anyone help me with this?

In addition does anyone know a command to perform leave-on-out metanalysis?

Thank you!

Hi Ryan,

I was wondering whether you have any update on the funnel plots?

I am performing a meta-analysis of proportions, and for the funnel plots I was thinking of plotting the logit-transformed proportion vs its standard error, but I am not sure whether the code is correct.

gen logitES = logit(_ES)
metafunnel logitES _seES

Any experience on this?

Thanks in advance and regards,

Nicoletta
