=== Plotting Aggregated Statistics ===

Consider a time series dataset that includes a time period indicator (`t`) that ranges from 3 to 9, an estimated population proportion (`p`), and upper/lower confidence interval bounds (`ci_upper` and `ci_lower`). This time series can be plotted like:

{{{
tsset t
graph twoway (rarea ci_lower ci_upper t, color(gs15)) (tsline p, ylabel(0(0.05)0.25 tlabel(3(1)9))
}}}

It may be helpful to also plot a horizontal line for the overall mean. Try:

{{{
quietly summ p
generate m = r(mean)
graph twoway ... (tsline m)
