Prioritization, resource-allocation, and sequencing methods: protocol for a systematic review with narrative synthesis

Prospective protocol for a systematic review with narrative synthesis examining evidence on comparative performance, robustness, information and analytic burden, implementation performance, limitations and failure modes, and relationships with prespecified decision-setting variables across the included method families. Search development and validation preceded deposition; formal OpenAlex and PubMed searching, screening, extraction, appraisal, and synthesis had not begun at the prospective cutoff.
