Policy proposals for a new welfare: the development of the family and community nurse in Italy as the key to promote social capital and social innovation.

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
aimTo discuss the development of the family and community health nurse (FCHN) in Italy by focusing on three levels: organisational, political and theoretical.
backgroundThe role of the FCHN in Italy is not yet embedded evenly across the Italian National Health System (INHS) and does not have formal recognition, either contractually or organisationally. Although complementary post-basic training has been available for over a decade, the FCHN's role in Italy currently exists only in pilot form. In some regions, the FCHN has operated for longer, thanks to which a clearer understanding of the functions and responsibilities required by the FCHN has emerged. Proposals for professional and social policies have emerged, as the FCHN's role may be an answer to health problems and a contributor to the construction of social capital, capable of influencing both individual and collective well-being.
methodsA mixed method investigation via a parallel concurrent design to identify the organisational models for the FCHN was conducted across Italy. In this paper, two profiles are discussed - family and community health nursing and FCHN - but each with its different connotations. The former refers to the practice of nursing and the latter to the nursing practitioners working with family and the community.
conclusionWe describe the expected future outcomes for FCHNs as elements of social innovation for the development of a new welfare system.
