Predictors and effects of hospital chief executive officer turnover: A systematic review.
Synthesis in Health care management review. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper, 1 of them a synthesis 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
backgroundChief executive officer (CEO) turnover is especially frequent in hospitals and represents a critical organizational event, yet its predictors and effects remain poorly understood. PURPOSE: We conducted a systematic review of the empirical literature on the predictors and effects of hospital CEO turnover worldwide to synthesize and assess the multiple findings scattered across studies. METHODOLOGY: In this systematic review, 30 empirical studies published between 1987 and 2024 were identified from three databases: Business Source Complete, MEDLINE, and APA PsycInfo. We followed the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) guidelines.
resultsWe found that the methodological quality of the studies was highly variable. Furthermore, we identified 46 unique predictors of hospital CEO turnover, including organizational, environmental, and personal characteristics, as well as characteristics related to prior performance. The findings regarding the effects of CEO turnover suggest that it can result in a temporary decline in financial performance and an elevated risk of organizational failure for hospitals. PRACTICE IMPLICATIONS: Our results underscore that, in hospitals with a higher likelihood of CEO turnover, early and systematic succession planning is crucial to increase leadership stability, reduce recruitment costs, and ensure organizational resilience.
