Guiding Principles for Surgical Pathways: A Tool for Improving Outcomes and Patient Safety.
Article in Frontiers in public health, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Surgical activity is an important aspect for the management of health and safety processes and from an organizational perspective is one of the most complex activities performed in hospitals. It is often a defining and high value feature for any healthcare facility while being one of the most high-risk procedures for patients with the highest number of avoidable adverse events. To ensure effective management of surgical pathways, they need to be considered from the perspective of clinical governance which takes a global approach to planning and management with the goal of improving safety and quality for patients. This paper contains the main features of this objective outlined within the document issued subsequent to the State-Regional Italian Government conference. This regulatory effort includes effective recommendations to make surgical pathways safer and more efficient with particular reference to lean management, patient blood management and patient safety.
