Refining the implementation research logic model: a citation analysis, user survey, and scoping review protocol.
Article in Frontiers in health services, 2024. 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
Introduction: The Implementation Research Logic Model (IRLM) aids users in combining, organizing, and specifying the relationships between important constructs in implementation research. The goal of the IRLM is to improve the rigor, reproducibility, and transparency of implementation research projects. The article describing the IRLM was published September 25, 2020 ( Methods and analysis: This protocol follows the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses extension for scoping review reporting guidelines (PRISMA-ScR). We plan to conduct a citation search and analysis of the Smith et al. 2020 article and a scoping review. The review search will be conducted in Medline, Embase, CINAHL Complete, Cochrane Library, APA PsycINFO4, ProQuest Dissertations & Theses Global, Scopus and Web of Science Core Collection., and grey literature will be searched to identify studies that use alternative logic models for implementation research. A survey will be developed from the findings of the scoping review and administered to individuals who used the IRLM. Semi-structured interviews will then be conducted with a sample of survey respondents to provide an opportunity for sequential mixed-methods analysis to achieve a deeper understanding of needed IRLM refinements and recommendations. Ethics and dissemination: Ethics approval for the scoping review and citation analysis is not applicable as only data from published literature will be used and no original data will be collected. For the survey, IRB will be completed once items are developed from the results of the scoping review and citation analysis. Results will be disseminated through peer-reviewed publications, conference presentations, and via online tools. Registration details: This protocol was registered with OSF, https://osf.io/y94bj (1).
