Fig. 1: Forest plot showing the odds ratios (OR) of opportunistic infection (OI) for the carriage of 2 versus 1 or 0 APOL1 variant alleles in the meta-analysis of four HIV/AIDS cohorts.
From: APOL1 variant alleles associate with reduced risk for opportunistic infections in HIV infection

Data were pooled from the four studies using inverse variance (IV) (Table 3). The red block indicates the point estimate of OR, while the horizontal line depicts 95% CI of OR in each study. The area of the block indicates the weight assigned to that study in the meta-analysis.
