Figure 2

Multivariable adjusted RRs and 95% CIs of prostate cancer by cadmium exposure in 5 cohort studies among the general population.

The summary estimates were obtained using a random-effects model. The dots indicate the adjusted RRs by comparing the highest to the lowest level of cadmium exposure or with one unit increment in cadmium exposure. The size of the shaded square is proportional to the percent weight of each study. The horizontal lines represent 95% CIs. The diamond data markers indicate the summary RRs. CI: confidence interval; RR: relative risk.
