Screening and Treating Hepatitis C in the VA: Achieving Excellence Using Lean and System Redesign.
Article in Federal practitioner : for the health care professionals of the VA, DoD, and PHS, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 21 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
The national effort to redesign care using Lean management strategies, develop local and regional teams, and centralize support allowed VA to maximize available resources to achieve higher rates of testing and treatment of patients with hepatitis C virus than that of any other health care system in the US.
