Figure 1 Forrest plots showing odds ratios for M2 carriage in specific RPL groups compared with population controls. An enrichment of M2 carriers is evident in total patient samples (A, odds ratio, 1.6; 95% confidence interval, 1.2–2.1; P=.003) as well as in all subgroups (B, embryonal losses; C, early fetal losses; D, late fetal losses). The highest and significant increase was found for women with early fetal losses (C, odds ratio, 1.9; 95% confidence interval, 1.3–3.0; P=.003).
