The Impact of Clinical Pharmacy Services in a Tertiary Care Center Specialized in Pediatric Hemato-Oncology.

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 pharmacy services (CPS) have shown beneficial effects on several outcome measures in hospital patients, including the reduction of drug-related problems (DRP) and of therapy costs. Less is known about the impact of CPS in pediatric haemato-oncology, even though this patient population is highly susceptible to DRP. CPS were implemented in a tertiary care children's hospital specialized in hemato-oncology and hematopoietic stem cell transplantation. The main outcome measures were type and number of DRP, type and number of pharmaceutical interventions (PI), their acceptance rate, and their clinical significance and economic benefit. During 6 months and 32 ward rounds, 275 DRP were identified and addressed by PI. The acceptance of PI was high (73.4%), and up to 80% of PI were rated as very significant or significant by independent external raters. The estimated therapy cost reductions were substantial, approaching at least EUR 54,600 for avoided follow-up costs. Conclusion: CPS improve medication safety in pediatric hemato-oncology and may reduce therapy costs.
