Israeli lay persons' views on priority-setting criteria for Alzheimer's disease.
Article in Health expectations : an international journal of public participation in health care and health policy, 2009. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled it.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
aimThe aim of this study was to assess Israeli lay persons' preferences for setting priorities for the care of Alzheimer's disease (AD).
backgroundAs the knowledge about AD accumulates, and especially as more therapeutic and non-therapeutic interventions for its early diagnosis and treatment are developed, health-care costs associated with the disease rise dramatically. Therefore, setting priorities for funding these therapies, as well as other costs associated with AD is becoming an increasingly complex need.
methodsA convenience sample of 624 community-dwelling men and women participated in the study (mean age = 49, range = 20-90). Participants were asked how strongly they agreed or disagreed with 18 criteria that would be used to set priorities for the allocation of resources in the area of AD.
resultsHigh-weight criteria included being a life-threatening condition and the benefit of treatment. Average-weight criteria included the severity of the disease, treatment costs and equity of access. The age of the patient also was highly rated. All other patient-related criteria were rated as low. Value orientations and education were the main variables associated with participants' preferences.
conclusionsThe lay public seems to endorse a multi-criteria decision process for the allocation of resources in the area of AD. Similar to other diseases--disease-related criteria were highly preferred. These preferences should be compared with those of other stakeholders such as clinicians and policy makers.
