Cost-Effectiveness Analysis of Telehealth and In-Person Primary Care Visits for People Living with Alzheimer's Disease-Related Disorders in the State of Nevada.
Article in International journal of environmental research and public health, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
To people living with Alzheimer's Disease-Related Disorders (ADRD), timely and coordinated communication is essential between their informal caregivers and healthcare providers. In provider shortage areas, for example, the state of Nevada, telehealth can be an effective primary care delivery alternative to in-person visits. To evaluate the cost-effectiveness of telehealth visits for people living with ADRD in the state of Nevada, a decision-analytic Markov model was developed from healthcare system perspectives with a 10-year horizon/1-year cycle. To estimate the effects of demographic and geographic parameters on the Markov model, race parameters were divided into non-Hispanic White individuals vs. others and location parameters were divided into urban vs. rural. A 12-item short-version Zarit Burden Interview (ZBI-12) was applied to measure the informal caregiver burdens of non-institutionalized people living with ADRD. The values of mortality rate and healthcare utilization were obtained from healthcare systems' publicly available payor administrative data and Nevada State Inpatient/Emergency Department datasets. Among urban-residing non-Hispanic White individuals, the Incremental Cost-Effectiveness Ratio (ICER) per modified ZBI-12 indicated a cost saving of USD 9.44 with telehealth visits; among urban-residing racial minorities, the ICER per modified ZBI-12 indicated a cost saving of USD 29.26 with in-person visits; and among rural residents, the ICER per modified ZBI-12 indicated a cost-saving of USD 320.93 with telehealth visits. Distributional differences in the cost-saving effects of telehealth primary care were noted in line with racial and geographic parameters. Workforce and caregiver training is necessary for reducing distributional differences, especially among urban-residing racial monitories living with ADRD in the provider shortage area of the state of Nevada.
