Guidelines and Current Assessment of Health Care Responsibility in Italy.
Article in Risk management and healthcare policy, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 17 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
Clinical guidelines are a potential tool for improving the effectiveness and quality of healthcare, decreasing variability in clinical practice, and preventing adverse events. In the purview of Law no. 24/2017, adherence to national guidelines can lead to a reduction in medical malpractice claims and the practice of so-called "defensive medicine". The law has assigned a central role to the guidelines, establishing the National Institute of Health through the new Italian National Center for Clinical Excellence, Quality, and Security (CNEC) as the methodological guarantor in the process of national guideline development. Here we discuss the issue of professional liability as recently outlined by the Gelli-Bianco Law (no. 24/2017), taking into account the clinical significance and medicolegal value of the guidelines.
