Figure 2 Forest plot showing individual and Mantel–Haenszel combined risk ratios in studies that evaluated the likelihood of clinical pregnancy in women with or without uterine adenomyosis undergoing surgery for deep endometriosis including colorectal resection. Dots indicate study-specific risk ratios; boxes indicate the study-specific weight; horizontal lines indicate 95% confidence intervals; rhombus indicates combined RR and 95% CI; dashed vertical line indicates the overall estimate. NS=not statistically significant. Reproductive BioMedicine Online 2014 28, 704-713DOI: (10.1016/j.rbmo.2014.02.006) Copyright © 2014 Reproductive Healthcare Ltd. Terms and Conditions
Figure 3 Begg’s funnel plot with pseudo 95% confidence intervals of the estimate in five studies in which the effect of adenomyosis on the likelihood of clinical pregnancy in infertile women undergoing surgery for deep endometriosis including colorectal resection was evaluated. No indication of asymmetry was observed. RR=risk ratio. Reproductive BioMedicine Online 2014 28, 704-713DOI: (10.1016/j.rbmo.2014.02.006) Copyright © 2014 Reproductive Healthcare Ltd.
