Figure 1 Predictors of employment after liver transplantation. Piles show the number of studies in which the variable was studied, and the dark proportion indicates the number of studies in which the variable was statistically significantly associated with employment. Univariate data are from references[6,13-18,20,29] and multivariate data from references[13-17].
