Dimensions of Health System Performance Assessment: A Scoping Review.
Review in Iranian journal of public health, 2025. 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
Background: Performance assessment is a key approach to understanding how functions and processes are operating. The first essential step in this process is to determine what aspects should be covered in the assessment. We aimed to identify the dimensions of health system performance assessment in Iran. Methods: A scoping review was conducted in this study from 2000 to 2024. It was carried out in both Persian and English databases. A total of 17 frameworks or models were identified. Their dimensions, components, and interrelationships were extracted and synthesized. Subsequently, a new framework was developed using the framework analysis approach. Results: We identified 6 main dimensions and 28 sub-dimensions for health system performance assessment, adopted as a logic model comprising inputs, output, and outcomes. The major dimensions include: Governance and Leadership-vision, policy and planning, communication, monitoring and evaluation; infrastructure, knowledge; standards of care and service of delivery. Conclusion: Despite the overlap of some of the main dimensions of the frameworks, the consolidated framework has differences from the previous ones, which emphasizes the assessment of qualitative feedback based on their experiences. Therefore, this integrated framework offers a comprehensive structure that is particularly suitable for evaluating the performance of Iran's health system, taking into account its specific environmental context.
