Figure 4

Presents the evolution of the cumulative I2 estimates and their associated 95% confidence intervals (CIs) over the accumulation of trials in meta-analyses (9) to (16).

The cumulative I2 are represented by the dot-dashed line ( ), and their associated cumulative 95% CIs are represented by the dotted lines ( ).
