Summarizes and visualizes categorical data extracted during literature reviews and evidence syntheses, starting from a data frame with one row per study. Generates publication-ready bar, stacked bar, histogram, waffle, donut, treemap, alluvial, trend, co-occurrence, 'UpSet', tree, and study-by-criteria matrix figures, together with world maps and formatted summary tables. Plot functions return standard 'ggplot2' objects that can be further customized, and an interactive 'Shiny' application is included for building figures without writing code. Aims to help researchers report study characteristics consistently across many publications.
