Dear all,
these days I was reading an article in which the authors, first name Marcel A.L.M. van Assen, create with the R software a very interesting graph, meta-plot, to be used when doing meta-analysis.
Could this graph be made with SAS?
I write here the link https://osf.io/eayfr/ where to find the R code and all the material used by the authors.
The title of the paper is: The Meta-Plot A graphical tool for interpreting the results of a meta-analysis.
Thank you very much
Giuseppe
So which parts do need help in SAS? Summarizing the data? Making the Plots?
What have you tried so far?
Where is your data?
Thanks for your answer

Thanks for your answer.
FANTASTIC and WONDERFUL.
