RFID-enabled process reengineering of closed-loop supply chains in the healthcare industry of Singapore.
Article in Journal of cleaner production, 2014. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Due to an increasing global awareness of the need for sustainable development in academia and business, closed-loop supply chains in hospitals have become an important area of focus. Process reengineering in purchasing, materials management, work practices, and waste management can reduce environmental hazards and contain costs at the healthcare facilities. This paper demonstrates an application of the RFID-enabled process reengineering in sustainable healthcare system design, and presents a case study in the linens division of central sterilization services department at a Singaporean hospital using ARENA simulation.
