Forest plot with 95% CI for incidence of AMS. The area of each square is proportional to the study’s weight in the meta-analysis, while the diamond shows the pooled result. The horizontal lines through the square illustrate the length of the confidence interval. The width of the diamond serves the same purpose. The overall meta-analysed measure of effect is imaginary vertical line passing through diamond. If result estimates are located to the left, it means that the outcome of interest (incidence) occurred less frequently in the intervention group than in the control group
