Figure 4 Forest plots showing the comparative diagnostic performance (pooled odds ratio) of intracystic glucose vs carcinoembryonic antigen. A: Accuracy, with pooled odds ratio (OR): 3.35 (95%CI: 2.34-4.80, I² = 92.87%); B: Sensitivity, with pooled OR: 9.36 (95%CI: 6.72-13.06, I² = 0%); C: Specificity, with pooled OR: 0.43 (95%CI: 0.26-0.70, I² = 0%). CEA: Carcinoembryonic antigen; CI: Confidence interval; OR: Odds ratio.
