The metafor Package

Baujat et al. (2002) proposed a diagnostic plot to detect sources of heterogeneity in meta-analytic data. The plot shows the contribution of each study to the overall Q-test statistic for heterogeneity on the horizontal axis versus the influence of each study (defined as the standardized squared difference between the overall estimate based on an equal-effects model with and without the $i$th study included in the model) on the vertical axis. An example of such a plot is shown below.

library(metafor)
 
### get data from Pignon et al. (2000)
dat <- dat.pignon2000
 
### compute estimated log hazard ratios and sampling variances
dat$yi <- with(dat, OmE/V)
dat$vi <- with(dat, 1/V)
 
### meta-analysis based on all 65 trials
res <- rma(yi, vi, data=dat, method="EE", slab=id)
 
### create Baujat plot
baujat(res, xlim=c(0,20), ylim=c(0,0.2), bty="l", las=1)
