Time-Driven Activity-Based Costing for Cataract Surgery in Canada: The Case of the Kensington Eye Institute.
Article in Healthcare policy = Politiques de sante, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 9 papers, 3 of them syntheses 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
Time-driven activity-based costing (TDABC) has received considerable attention globally as a way to measure value in healthcare systems. This study aimed to apply TDABC for cataract surgery at the Kensington Eye Institute (KEI). During a field evaluation, a detailed process map was created for cataract surgery at KEI. The amount of resource use in terms of providers, equipment, space and consumables was calculated to determine the total costs of care. The average patient journey lasted 76 minutes, with 13 minutes of the surgical procedure occurring in the operating room (OR). The average procedure's cost per case was $545.28, which included consumables (34.40%), space and equipment (23.702%), personnel (11.69%), overhead (30.27%) and OR (57%). KEI cataract operation was at approximately 50% capacity due to funding limits. The TDABC process map and costing allow centres to have data-driven support tools for care redesign and optimization.
