ORs with their 95% credible intervals (CrIs) from the network meta-analysis are shown in the lower left triangle, and ORs with their 95% CrIs from the pairwise meta-analyses (ie, direct evidence from randomised controlled trials) in the upper-right triangle. For any cell, an OR<1 favours the upper-left treatment, and an OR>1 favours the lower-right treatment.
