Main findings in overall and subgroup meta-analysis of metabolic-related studies. For the full results, see Supplementary Table S2. (A) Obesity and overweight studies and their outcomes (OR, 95% CI). The number of studies included are given in brackets. Significance levels are indicated with asterisks: *P < 0.05, **P < 0.001 and ***P < 0.00001. Dashed line indicates OR of 1; i.e. no difference in risk to controls. (B) Meta-analysis of BMI-z score studies represented as main difference (MD***) and 95% CI. Significance levels are indicated with asterisks: *P < 0.05 and ***P < 0.00001. Dashed line at MD = 0 indicates the point at which there is no difference to controls. (C) Dose−response meta-analysis of the association between early antibiotic exposure and childhood obesity (n = 4). Solid and dashed lines represent the estimated pooled ORs and CIs, respectively.
