Settings for the pairwise meta-analysis include a selection for endpoint, plot type (descriptive or comparative), model type (fixed or random), subgroup to generate the analysis by, selections for the left and right text columns that surround the plot, and a page slider. The user can further select the number of rows and decimal places to view, set x-axis log transformation, reverse data order, and show a symmetrical forest plot. There is also an option to include/exclude imputed variability measures.

The pairwise analysis provides a summarising overview of the treatment effects of all studies together with a 95% confidence interval. Each row represents a different treatment group. The diamond at the bottom of the plot shows the result when all individual studies are combined and averaged. The horizontal points of the diamond are 95% confidence interval limits. Additional summary-level information includes the prediction interval and heterogeneity information.

The summary is an R output of the meta-object (an object created from the R package metafor) generated by the selections in the sidebar settings.

The Data Selection Overview presents a comprehensive summary of the selection process, providing insights into the number of studies excluded and studies that remain after filter application. This information can be used to assess the effectiveness of the filtering mechanism and to determine the relevance of the selected studies to the research question at hand.

The Analysis set allows you to choose what to display in the meta-analysis plot. A checkbox allows the inclusion or exclusion of the endpoint group.

The Summary Report and Data Download tab provides users with the ability to select information to be included in a report and subsequently downloaded.
