3 Meta-analytic associations

3.1 Nagelkerke R2 vs. -log10(pvalue)

## Warning: Removed 33 rows containing missing values (geom_point).
## Warning: Removed 24 rows containing missing values (geom_point).
-log10(pvalue) versus Nagelkerke R2. Each point is an average of the Nagelkerke R2 over a number of countries and the p-value is the meta-analytic association pvalue. Associations are stratified by the number of countries for comparison. Horizontal dotted line represents the Bonferroni level of significance. Vertical line represents the R2 threshold of 0.001.

Figure 3.1: -log10(pvalue) versus Nagelkerke R2. Each point is an average of the Nagelkerke R2 over a number of countries and the p-value is the meta-analytic association pvalue. Associations are stratified by the number of countries for comparison. Horizontal dotted line represents the Bonferroni level of significance. Vertical line represents the R2 threshold of 0.001.

3.2 Odds Ratio vs. -log10(pvalue)

-log10(pvalue) versus odds ratio. Each point is an meta-analytic odds ratio over a number of countries and the p-value is the meta-analytic association pvalue. Associations are stratified by the number of countries for comparison. Dotted line represents the Bonferroni level of significance.

Figure 3.2: -log10(pvalue) versus odds ratio. Each point is an meta-analytic odds ratio over a number of countries and the p-value is the meta-analytic association pvalue. Associations are stratified by the number of countries for comparison. Dotted line represents the Bonferroni level of significance.

3.3 Inter-survey heterogeneity of identified associations

## Warning: Removed 3 rows containing missing values (geom_point).
I2 vs. -log10(meta analytic pvalue); dotted line represents 50% I2

6 Top Associations for females across 20-29 countries in Sub-Saharan Africa

Left most panel is the variable name and code name, 2nd panel from left is the percent of countries variable was identified, 3rd panel from left is the Nagelkerke R2 per country (red dot is the average; blue points are countries with OR > 1, dark blue are countries with OR < 1), 4th  panel shows the odds ratios (overall meta-analytic estimate in the red dot), and 5th panel shows the I2 (heterogeneity).
