Enhancing Integrated Care Through the Voluntary and Community Sector: A Lean Management and Dynamic Capabilities Perspective.
Article in International journal of integrated care. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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 Voluntary and Community Sector (VCS) is a critical contributor to integrated care, bridging gaps between health and social care services. However, operational inefficiencies and challenges in adapting to dynamic care environments hinder its full potential. This paper clarifies the perspective-drawn from research and practice-on applying Lean Management principles and Dynamic Capabilities Theory to enhance VCS operations. Using practical vignettes, it illustrates how these frameworks can improve volunteer recruitment, retention, and resource allocation, fostering efficiency and adaptability. Recommendations focus on specific aspects of integrated care, including service coordination, crisis adaptability, and volunteer management, leading to better patient outcomes.
