[Effects of overlapping induction on the utilization of complex operating structures: estimation using the practical application of a simulation model].
Article in Der Anaesthesist, 2013. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
Reduction of costs or increase in efficiency may lead to optimization of cost-effectiveness in operating rooms. Overlapping induction by additional anesthesia teams reduces the changeover time between surgical interventions and, therefore, increases utilization effectiveness of surgical theatres. From an economic point of view overlapping induction should be performed where the highest increase in efficacy and revenues is possible. This article presents a software tool to vary the number of anesthesia teams in different single or clustered operating rooms. Using the example of a university hospital it could be demonstrated that the simulated addition of one anesthesia team to different clusters of operations rooms resulted in an increase of 15-40 % of operations and an increase up to 81 % of utilization effectiveness. Therefore, the presented simulation tool may help to estimate the maximum effect of staff allocation in surgical theatres.
