Engineering changes are inevitable and might propagate within and across multiple boundaries. Their management has increasingly become relevant within the interdisciplinary field of systems engineering. A few literature categorization frameworks arising from literature reviews have been proposed to structure the research field of engineering change management. However, the literature reviews are limited in scope, and the existing categorization frameworks do not provide sufficient coverage of the research field in its broader context. This paper addresses both shortcomings. First, a new, holistic and process-oriented literature categorization framework is proposed. Second, this proposed framework is used to categorize a comprehensive list of 427 publications in engineering change management. This categorization highlights not only research areas which have gained much attention, but also those where little research has been done. Third, a citation analysis is conducted which reveals the links between the publications and indicates the most cited publications. The result of this paper will help researchers and managers to (1) navigate through the state of the art in engineering change management, (2) position their work in the overall picture of engineering change management, (3) focus on the identified research gaps and weak points, and (4) search for further research and improvement opportunities. 473 Regular Paperalong the EC process. Second, it provides a relatively complete picture of research in ECM by positioning 384 journal articles and conference papers and 43 books, book sections, and reports in the proposed framework. Third, it presents a citation analysis for selected publications of the core ECM categories. The paper is structured in five remaining sections. Section 2 provides the background for the proposed categorization framework by defining EC and ECM and elaborating existing literature reviews and categorization frameworks. Section 3 introduces the proposed categorization framework. Section 4 presents the literature survey, positioning, and citation analysis; Section 5 discusses those results; and Section 6 concludes the paper.

BACKGROUND:The purpose of this study was to assess whether analyses of tumor markers in cytological fluid can improve the performance of computed tomography (CT)‐guided needle aspiration biopsy (NAB) for the diagnosis of ground‐glass opacity (GGO) pulmonary lesions.METHODS:Forty‐two patients were prospectively enrolled for CT‐guided NAB. Levels of cytokeratin 19 fragments (CYFRA 21‐1) and carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) from serum and cytological fluid were measured. The cutoff values of 3.3 ng/mL for CYFRA 21‐1 and 5.0 ng/mL for CEA (threshold A) or thresholds by adding 2 standard deviations to the mean levels of markers found in patients without malignancy (threshold B) were used to identify malignancy. The sensitivity and area under the curve (AUC) of NAB alone were compared with those of NAB combined with serum or cytological tumor markers.RESULTS:Among the 42 patients, 30 (71.4%) had malignant and 12 (28.6%) had benign lesions. For NAB alone, the sensitivity, specificity, and AUC for diagnosing GGO were 70.0%, 100%, and 0.850, respectively. The sensitivity and AUC increased significantly for NAB with cytological CYFRA 21‐1 compared with NAB alone, using both thresholds (threshold A: 86.7%, P = .026 and .933, P = .016; threshold B: 93.3%, P = .008 and .925, P = .046).CONCLUSIONS:Cytological fluid measurements of CYFRA 21‐1 can improve the diagnostic performance of CT‐guided NAB for GGO pulmonary lesions.
