Forest plot of the coronary heart disease (CHD)–glycemic load (GL) risk relation (RR). The plot shows for each prospective cohort study the relative risk associated with a higher exposure. Risk relations shown were generated by quantitative dose-response meta-analysis. Box sizes are proportional to the weight contributed by a study to the combined study mean. Horizontal lines span the individual study 95% CIs. Arrowheads indicate truncations. Diamonds represent the combined studies mean RR values and its 95% CI values.
