Ginsenoside Rg3 Serves as an Adjuvant Chemotherapeutic Agent and VEGF Inhibitor in the Treatment of Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer: A Meta-Analysis and Systematic Review

Figure 7

Forest plot of RR for evaluation of KPS in late-stage NSCLC patients in a fixed-effect model. The RR of KPS in the Rg3 and chemotherapy group was compared with that of the chemotherapy group. Individual studies are shown by the blue-colored squares, and the pooled datasets are shown by the diamond, representing the 95% confidence interval (CI) of each study. RR > 1 implied a better quality of life in late-stage NSCLC patients among the experimental group. The size of each investigation represented the weighting factor (1/SE) assigned to the study.
