Dear R Users,
Do you know of an existing function that allows the production of
sensitivity and specificity forest plots?
See the following for an example:
http://www.google.co.uk/imgres?q=forest+plots+of+sensitivity+and+specificity&um=1&hl=en&authuser=0&biw=1920&bih=989&tbm=isch&tbnid=JLxXNU7iQ2N_CM:&imgrefurl=http://www.medscape.com/viewarticle/717751_3&docid=NnthE8_KgNQZdM&imgurl=http://img.medscape.com/article/717/751/717751-fig3.jpg&w=857&h=734&ei=UnzKTvfTGIWC8gPnq4R7&zoom=1&iact=hc&vpx=1300&vpy=282&dur=19&hovh=208&hovw=243&tx=140&ty=108&sig=112892243842455187632&page=1&tbnh=123&tbnw=144&start=0&ndsp=69&ved=1t:429,r:20,s:0
The standard meta-analysis packages (metafor etc) do not seem to have this
type of forest plot.
If I were to construct a bespoke function within R, would you recommend
using the forest function within metafor, or the dotplot function within
lattice, or something else entirely as a starting point for constructing
the function?
Many thanks,
