PUFA meta-analysis — forest plot

6 trials · PUFA replacement vs control · pooled risk ratio for events
Methods. Per-study risk ratio with continuity correction for zero cells. Random-effects model uses DerSimonian–Laird τ². Heterogeneity assessed via Cochran's Q and I². Diamond width = 95% CI of the pooled estimate. Square size ∝ study weight.
