Dear all, I use R 3.0.2 for Windows 7.
I performed a sub-groups meta-analysis of the prevalence (single proportion)reported in 14 different studies using the package meta (April 19, 2014). I have two groups. I use the line commands: res <-metaprop(case,n,sm="PFT", comb.fixed=FALSE, comb.random=TRUE, byvar=group, tau.common=TRUE, studlab<- paste(Study)) forest(res, fontsize=10, squaresize=1.2, just.studlab="left", just="center", addspace=TRUE, pooled.events=TRUE, bylab="", print.byvar=FALSE, bysort=FALSE) I would like to change the order of the two subgroup presentation in the forest plot. However, despite (bysort=FALSE), the two subgroups are presented in alphabetic order and Im unable to change the order of the two subgroups without change the dataset. A more generally question is: how to change the order of presentation of subgroups in the forest plot using the package meta? Any suggestion is welcome.
