Adopting Lean Management in Quality of Services, Cost Containment, and Time Management.
Article in Asian Pacific journal of cancer prevention : APJCP, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 12 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled it.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
objectivesThis study aims to identify the role of adopting lean management in the quality of service, cost containment, and time management and to identify factors affecting lean management adoption, quality of service, cost containment, and time management in oncology settings.
methodsA cross-sectional design was adopted in this study at the King Hussein Cancer Center (KHCC), a private institution in Amman, Jordan. A convenience sampling technique was used to select 360 participants. A self-administered questionnaire (58 items) was used to collect the data. Results: The mean value for the quality of services was 3.84±0.56. These values for adoption of lean, time management, and cost containment were 3.82±0.74, 3.73±0.75, and 3.40±0.76 respectively. The results showed that the impacts of lean management adoption on the quality of service, cost containment, and time management were significant (p-value<0.001). The results showed substantial effects of all factors (organizational, departmental, and individual factors) on lean adoption, quality of service, cost containment, and time management (p value<.001).
conclusionLean management adoption had a significant impact on quality of service, cost containment, and time management in oncology settings.
