Nick asked:
"Hi to all,

I was wondering if there is a way to sort study effects according to the direction  of the effect in a forest plot after implementing the metan command.
I could rearrange the order of the studies in the data editor as a last measure."

-metan- then sort on _ES and re-do it.  Example below using the dataset from the -metan- help file (read that for what -metan- stores as new variables), HTH, Graeme.

*** begin example ***
use http://fmwww.bc.edu/repec/bocode/m/metan_example_data, clear
metan  tdeath tnodeath cdeath cnodeath
sort _ES
metan  tdeath tnodeath cdeath cnodeath
*** end example ***
