The black lines on either side of the squares represent the confidence intervals. The diamond at the bottom represents the summary effect with the outer edges representing the confidence intervals. Square or diamond on the right of the central bar (i.e., superior to 1) represents a positive association between maternal AID and ASD in the offspring. To be significant, the confidence interval lines must not cross 1.
