Forest plots of merged analyses for patient survival or disease progression associated with microRNA-145 (miR-145) expression in different subgroups of pathologic types and malignant diseases. (A) Forest plots for the merged analyses of overall survival in different pathological subgroups. Squares and horizontal lines correspond to study-specific hazard ratios (HRs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs), respectively. The area of the squares correlates the weight, and the diamonds represent summary HRs and 95% CIs. (B) Forest plots for the merged analyses of progression-free survival (PFS) in different pathological type subgroups. (C) Forest plots for the merged analyses of PFS in different malignant disease subgroups.
