Fig. 4: Proportion of the sample size that was used to make antibiotic resistance transmission inferences in 34 studies.

From: A systematic review of antimicrobial resistance transmission inferences at the human-livestock interface in Africa

The X-axis is the proportion for individual studies as listed along the Y-axis, with the range of proportion in 95% confidence interval (CI). The position and size of the boxes represent proportion and weight of the study in the meta-analysis, respectively. The pooled proportion is represented by the diamond. Events, which is the numerator, refer to the number of samples used for investigation of transmission in a study, while Total, the denominator, refers to the total number of samples collected in a study. The objective driven inferences (Yes/No) variable categorizes studies into whether they explicitly stated in their study aims that they were going to investigate transmission or not.
