1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

This work focuses on the clinical-organizational model implemented in an Italian region (Liguria) to streamline the access procedures to galenic cannabis preparations. The competent local health care authority that takes care of tracing a virtuous path to obtain common, uniform and shared protocols and ensure high standards of care is A.Li.Sa. (Azienda Ligure Sanitaria), a public organization with the function of coordination, direction and governance of the health care in the regional hospitals and health facilities. To this purpose, different working groups and a board meeting have been set up with the main role to define and develop technical standards to be applied to the prescription, preparation and dispensing of pharmaceutical forms based on therapeutic cannabis. In particular, the galenic preparations provided by the Italian Ministry of Health, described in detail in the regional standard operating protocols, are described and discussed. Moreover, the most significant data monitored from 2018 to 2020 and collected by hospitals and the evaluation of those derived from local pharmacies and health facilities are presented, discussed and compared in regards to their adherence and coherence with the Italian Institute of Health (ISS) data.
