An Algorithm for Incorporating Economic Evidence Into Clinical Practice Guidelines: Application to the Spanish Guideline for the Management of Chronic Primary Pain.

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
The importance of incorporating economic evidence (EE) such as resource use, cost or cost-effectiveness evidence into Clinical Practice Guidelines (CPG) is being increasingly recognised by decision makers, including healthcare providers and policy makers. Yet, this is a complex and resource-intensive process. EE can influence recommendations formulated about interventions in CPGs, especially when the desirable and undesirable effects are balanced. A group of methodologists, including health economists, in GuíaSalud (the organisation of the Spanish National Health System (NHS) that coordinates the national CPG Programme), has made important advances in the development of methodological guidance for how to develop evidence-based recommendations. In this article, we present an algorithm for informing decisions about incorporating EE in CPGs. The algorithm has three stages: (1) prioritise clinical questions in the CPG according to the influence that EE is expected to have on recommendations; (2) obtain EE for clinical questions that have been prioritised via a systematic review and/or a
