Figure 2

Observational associations of PAI‐1 and CHD from the literature up until July 2016. This is a forest plot depicting the result of the meta‐analysis based on previous publications for observations of plasminogen activator inhibitor type 1 (PAI‐1) and coronary heart disease (CHD) association. Odds ratio (OR) with 95% CI is the OR of CHD comparing the highest PAI‐1 quantile to lowest PAI‐1 quantile, which is also represented as a point with bar in the plot. The diamond represents the meta‐analysis result using a random effects model. A, PAI‐1‐CHD associations adjusted for age, sex, and ethnic group in each study. B, PAI‐1‐CHD association in models adjusted for multiple CHD risk factors.
