The Need to Implement Health Technology Assessment in Polish Hospitals-A Survey of 50 Hospital Managers.
Article in International journal of environmental research and public health, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
Hospital-based health technology assessment (HB-HTA) is a scientific approach to inform decisions on investments in health technologies across multiple medical specialties at a hospital level. HB-HTA is not currently practiced in Poland. This study aimed to assess the need for HTA in Polish hospitals, including perceived benefits and challenges of adoption of HB-HTA in Poland, expected demand for training in HB-HTA, and perception of incentives to foster HB-HTA adoption. Study data were gathered using the computer-assisted telephone interview (CATI) technique. Between June and August 2021, 50 interviews were conducted: 52% of respondents had over 10 years of experience, and 40% comprised the highest degree reference hospitals. A high or moderate need for HB-HTA was reported by 86% of managers. The ability to indicate valuable and affordable medical technologies was the main reported benefit of HB-HTA (90%). The main obstacle to the adoption of HB-HTA was the shortage of competent staff (84%). The most important incentives to adopt HB-HTA were free training and premium financing from the National Health Fund. There is a clear need for HB-HTA in Polish hospitals despite some important obstacles.
