Fig. 1 ORs and 95% CIs for infections at the site of surgery (the vertical line represents the ‘no difference’ point between the compared groups, and the horizontal lines the 95% CIs). The squares represent ORs from the different trials; the size of each square denotes the proportion of information abstracted from each trial. The diamond represents the pooled OR for all randomised controlled trials (OR, 1.32; 95% CI, 0.45–3.84).
