1 · What the graph read from 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.

2 · The registry

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

Dealing with randomness is a crucial aspect that cost-effectiveness analysis (CEA) tools need to address, but existing stochastic CEA tools have rarely examined risk and return from the perspective of population benefits, concerning the benefits of a group of individuals but not just a typical one. This paper proposes a stochastic CEA tool that supports medical decision-making from the perspective of population benefits of risk and return, the risk-adjusted incremental cost-effectiveness ratio (ICER). The tool has a traditional form of ICER but uses the cost under a risk-adjusted expectation. Theoretically, we prove that the tool can provide medical decisions trimming that promote the risk-return level on population benefits within any intervention structure and can also serve as a criterion for the optimal intervention structure. Numerical simulations within a framework of mean-variance support the conclusions in this paper.
