Development and usability testing of a tool to estimate the budget impact of implementing a smoking cessation intervention for cancer patients.
Article in Cancer causes & control : CCC, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
purposeBudget impact analyses (BIAs) aim to estimate costs of evidence-based programs in specific contexts, an important component of implementation decision making. We developed a BIA tool focused on the Smokefree Support Study, a cost-effective smoking cessation program for patients entering cancer care and refined the tool through usability testing.
methodsThe BIA tool was structured using data from the Smokefree Support Study cost-effectiveness study. We refined the tool via usability testing to improve functionality and gain insight into the tool's potential for informing adoption decisions. We recruited participants from sites participating in the NCI-funded Cancer Center Cessation Initiative.
resultsThe final BIA tool allowed users generate context-specific cost estimates. Usability testing interviews informed changes to improve the BIA tool's usability and also illustrated users' natural inclination toward adaptation, helped identify the target audience for the tool, and underscored that cost results should be contextualized with other decision criteria to support program adoption.
conclusionWe developed a BIA tool with which users can generate context-specific cost estimates of the Smokefree Support Study program. The breadth of usability feedback provided by participants and perspectives on using the BIA tool underscore the importance of involving end users in the development of tools and products.
