The order of Figs. 3, 4, and 5 are incorrectly switched. The image that appears as Fig. 3 should be Fig. 5, the image that appears as Fig. 4 should be Fig. 3, and the image that appears as Fig. 5 should be Fig. 4. The Figure legends appear in the correct order. Additionally, the caption for Fig. 4 is incorrect, and the description of Fig. 4 in the second sentence of the sixth paragraph under the subheading Application using Diabetes Data in the Results section is incorrect. The correct sentence is “A forest plot available from the gemtc package provides the pairwise estimates of odds ratios, shown in Fig. 3, and also includes a visual breakdown of each pairwise comparison where two of the pairwise comparisons are illustrated in Fig. 4.” Please view Figs 3, 4, and 5, along with their correct legends here.
