Figure 4. Forest plot with random effects overall hazard ratio for association between lifetime recreational (pre-diagnosis) physical activity (highest vs. lowest physical activity categories) and all-cause death in breast cancer survivors. Red squares indicate hazard ratios (HRs), and solid horizontal lines represent 95% confidence intervals (CIs). The vertical solid line indicates point of no effect. Black diamond indicates overall effect.
