[R-meta] Reducing space between the `xlab` and with the x-axis in a forestplot in metafor

[Reza Norouzian]

Dear All,

Below, I'm trying to reduce the space between the xlab (titled: "Log Risk
Ratio") and the x-axis (*see picture below*) in the forest plot generated
by the metafor package in R with no success.

Is there any way to achieve this?

library(metafor)

dat <- escalc(measure="RR", ai=tpos, bi=tneg, ci=cpos, di=cneg, data=dat.bcg)

forest(dat$yi, dat$vi, mgp = c(2, .3, 0)) # Tried setting `mgp` without success!
