Hi,
Good morning.
I wanted to create a forestplot in METAN. Not actually running a meta-analysis rather only displaying ORs of different subgroups in one plot. Sample date is following:
Exposure Subgroups OR LCL UCL
Overweight vs. Normal Papillary Thyroid Cancer 1.50 1.20 1.89
Obese vs. Normal Papillary Thyroid Cancer 1.71 1.35 2.17
Overweight vs. Normal Follicular Thyroid Cancer 1.71 0.99 2.95
Obese vs. Normal Follicular Thyroid Cancer 1.57 0.88 2.80
Overweight vs. Normal BRAF positive Thyroid Cancer 1.74 1.30 2.33
Obese vs. Normal BRAF positive Thyroid Cancer 2.20 1.64 2.94
Overweight vs. Normal BRAF negative Thyroid Cancer 1.39 1.02 1.90
Obese vs. Normal BRAF negative Thyroid Cancer 1.28 0.92 1.79
I used the following code:

metan logor loglcl logucl, eform by (Subgroups) lcols (Exposure) effect(OR) astext(40) textsize(200) nooverall nobox nosubgroup xlab(1, 2, 3)

The code works fine. But for better clarity of the graph, I wanted to make the heading bold or italic. An indent spacing would also serve my purpose.

I found a post suggesting admetan for this purpose. But it comes up with an additional column that I don't want.



Any help is much appreciated.

Cheers
Sabbir
