3. Fig. 2
Cost-effectiveness analysis at 0–12 weeks for PCT compared with control for (A) POS-8 and (B) ZBI. Dots to the right of the axis indicate improved outcomes; dots below the horizontal axis show lower costs. Therefore, dots in the lower right quadrant show both improved outcomes and lower costs, and those in the upper left quadrant show worse outcomes and higher costs.
