Forest plots for PMI incidence for patients stratified by different clinical presentation.

Abstract

<p>Forest plots were generated using Review Manager 5.2.0 for patients with stable angina, ACS or mixed disease presentation from individual and pooled trials. The incidence of PMI was expressed as a dichotomous variable, and the results were expressed as odds ratios (OR) with 95% confidence intervals (CI). Heterogeneity across trials was evaluated with I² statistic, defined as I²>50%. Because the heterogeneity was low, a fixed-effect model was used.</p
