Operationalizing Accountability for Integrated Care: A Qualitative Study of an Ontario Health Team.
Article in Healthcare management forum, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Shared accountability is widely emphasized in integrated care theory and policy but remains underspecified in practice. This study examined how shared accountability was operationalized and experienced within an Ontario Health Team (OHT) using data from 23 semi-structured interviews with OHT stakeholders. Six interrelated factors that shape shared accountability were identified: perceived organizational identity, clarity of leadership roles and consequences for non-compliance, clarity of partner organizations' roles and consequences for non-compliance, management of goals and interests, trust and psychological safety, and power dynamics. Together, these factors highlight that shared accountability is not merely a matter of assigning roles or measuring outcomes; rather, it is a complex, relational process. These findings offer practical guidance for strengthening shared accountability in integrated care networks.
