Abstract

While many studies were of high quality, heterogeneity in study objectives, design, and outcomes restricted evidence synthesis. Future research should ensure methodological consistency, transparent cost reporting, and integration of new treatment frameworks to improve the policy relevance and reliability of economic evidence for AD diagnostics.
