Important issues in estimating costs of early childhood educational interventions: An example from the REDI Program.
Article in Children and youth services review, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 papers.
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
Early childhood education (ECE) interventions hold great promise for not only improving lives but also for potentially producing an economic return on investment linked to key outcomes from program effectiveness. Assessment of economic impact relies on accurate estimates of program costs that should be derived consistently to enable program comparability across the field. This is challenged by a lack of understanding of the best approach to determine program costs that represent how they will occur in the real world and how they may vary across differing circumstances. Thorough and accurate cost analyses are vital for providing important information toward future implementations and for enabling analysis of potential return on investment. In this paper, we present five key issues most relevant to cost analysis for ECE programs that interventionists should acknowledge when estimating their programs' costs. Attention to these issues more broadly can lead to comprehensive and thorough cost estimates and potentially increase consistency in cost analyses. These issues are illustrated within the cost analysis of REDI (
