Understanding implementation costs of a pediatric weight management intervention: an economic evaluation protocol.
Article in Implementation science communications, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT04719442 (Translating Efficacious Pediatric Weight Management Interventions Into Rural & Micropolitan Communities), which is not on this map. Cited by 6 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.

Abstract
backgroundUnderstanding the cost and/or cost-effectiveness of implementation strategies is crucial for organizations to make informed decisions about the resources needed to implement and sustain evidence-based interventions (EBIs). This economic evaluation protocol describes the methods and processes that will be used to assess costs and cost-effectiveness across implementation strategies used to improve the reach, adoption, implementation, and organizational maintenance of an evidence-based pediatric weight management intervention- Building Health Families (BHF).
methodsA within-trial cost and cost-effectiveness analysis (CEA) will be completed as part of a hybrid type III effectiveness-implementation trial (HEI) designed to examine the impact of an action Learning Collaborative (LC) strategy consisting of network weaving, consultee-centered training, goal-setting and feedback, and sustainability action planning to improve the adoption, implementation, organizational maintenance, and program reach of BHF in micropolitan and surrounding rural communities in the USA, over a 12-month period. We discuss key features of implementation strategy components and the associated cost collection and outcome measures and present brief examples on what will be included in the CEA for each discrete implementation strategy and how the results will be interpreted. The cost data will be collected by identifying implementation activities associated with each strategy and using a digital-based time tracking tool to capture the time associated with each activity. Costs will be assessed relative to the BHF program implementation and the multicomponent implementation strategy, included within and external to a LC designed to improve reach, effectiveness, adoption, implementation, and maintenance (RE-AIM) of BHF. The CEA results will be reported by RE-AIM outcomes, using the average cost-effectiveness ratio or incremental cost-effectiveness ratio. All the CEAs will be performed from the community perspective. DISCUSSION: The proposed costing approach and economic evaluation framework for dissemination and implementation strategies and EBI implementation will contribute to the evolving but still scant literature on economic evaluation of implementation and strategies used and facilitate the comparative economic analysis.
