aICER: incremental cost-effectiveness ratio.

bNE: northeast quadrant (the intervention was more effective and more costly than usual care).

cSE: southeast quadrant (the intervention was more effective and less costly than usual care).

dSW: southwest quadrant (the intervention was less effective and less costly than usual care).

eNW: northwest quadrant (the intervention was less effective and more costly than usual care).
