An introduction to effectiveness-implementation hybrid designs.
Article in Psychiatry research, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to 2 registered trials, which are not on this map. Cited by 294 papers, 3 of them syntheses 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

Abstract
The traditional research pipeline that encourages a staged approach to moving an intervention from efficacy trials to the real world can take a long time. To address this issue, hybrid effectiveness-implementation designs were codified to promote examination of both effectiveness and implementation outcomes within a study. There are three types of hybrid designs and they vary based on their primary focus and the amount of emphasis on effectiveness versus implementation outcomes. A type 1 hybrid focuses primarily on the effectiveness outcomes of an intervention while exploring the "implementability" of the intervention. A type 2 hybrid has a dual focus on effectiveness and implementation outcomes; these designs allow for the simultaneous testing or piloting of implementation strategies during an effectiveness trial. A type 3 hybrid focuses primarily on implementation outcomes while also collecting effectiveness outcomes as they relate to uptake or fidelity of the intervention. This paper provides an introduction to these designs and describes each of the three types, design considerations, and examples for each.
