Fig 2 Multivariable-adjusted ORs and 95% CIs (horizontal lines) of asthma. The summary estimates (diamond data markers) were obtained by using a random-effects model. Dots indicate adjusted ORs comparing the highest with the lowest category of or per 10 nmol/L increment in 25(OH)D levels. The size of the shaded square is proportional to the weight of each study.
