Extended Data Fig. 8. Funnel plot for meta-analysis of the association between childhood sexual abuse and five outcomes with an estimated one- or zero-star association identified through the systematic review of the literature.
These modified funnel plots show the residuals of the reported mean relative risk (RR) relative to 0, the null value, on the x-axis and the residuals of the standard error, as estimated from both the reported standard error and gamma, relative to 0 on the y-axis. The light blue vertical interval corresponds to the 95% uncertainty interval (UI) incorporating between-study heterogeneity; the dark blue vertical interval corresponds to the 95% UI without between-study heterogeneity; the dots are each included observation; the red Xs are outliered observations; the grey dotted line reflects the null log(RR) of 0 (equivalent to a null RR of 1); the blue vertical line is the mean log(RR) for childhood sexual abuse and the outcome of interest; the red vertical line is the burden of proof function at the 5th quantile for these harmful risk-outcome associations.
