2 Additional Analysis As a complementary analysis the overall relative risk (RR) using a Mantel Haenszel (MH) approach stratified by study and adjusted for treatment exposure was calculated. This provided the pooled MH RR and 95% confidence intervals (CI) for pneumonia AE and SAE. For the visual assessment of the risk over all individual studies, a descriptive 95% credibility interval for the RR was provided using the method of Barker and Cadwell (1) with an uninformative uniform prior; the median of the posterior distribution was used to provide a point estimate for the RR, allowing presentation of studies with no event. These Bayesian risk estimates and credibility intervals are presented in forest plots, together with the pooled MH RR and its 95% CI for pneumonia AE and SAE. Reference (1) Barker L, Cadwell BL. An analysis of eight 95 per cent confidence intervals for a ratio of Poisson parameters when events are rare. Stat Med 2008; 27:
