Figure 3.

Tornado diagrams comparing incremental cost-effectiveness ratios (ICER) for different strategies. Diagram (a) shows Strategy 1 versus Strategy 2, indicating costs of TT and mtx therapy and probabilities associated with this treatment option such as LDA, MDA nd remission, and mtx therapy. Diagram (b) compares Strategy 1 versus Strategy 3, highlighting similar factors including costs of b/tsdmard, mtx, prednisolone, and corresponding probabilities. Vertical axis lists factors; horizontal axis measures ICER values. Both include a willingness-to-pay threshold line at 282.

One-way sensitivity analysis comparing ICERS of methotrexate monotherapy vs. methotrexate + TT (a) and methotrexate + b/tsDMARD1 (b). Each variable is arranged by decreasing impact on the ICER. A willingness to pay threshold of USD 282 was used.
