Advanced Forest Plot Using 'grid' Graphics

v3.2.0 · Mar 3, 2026 · GPL-2

Description

Allows the creation of forest plots with advanced features, such as multiple confidence intervals per row, customizable fonts for individual text elements, and flexible confidence interval drawing. It also supports mixing text with mathematical expressions. The package extends the application of forest plots beyond traditional meta-analyses, offering a more general version of the original 'rmeta' package’s forestplot() function. It relies heavily on the 'grid' package for rendering the plots.
