The mental health care system for children and adolescents in Greece: a review and structure assessment.
Review in Frontiers in health services, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 10 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
Background: The mental health system in Greece faces challenges to complete its transition to a community-oriented model, having significant concerns for child and adolescent care due to lower coverage and service gaps. This component of the mental health system has not been comprehensively evaluated. Methods: We conducted a review of the mental health care system for children and adolescents in Greece. For a field assessment, we directly collected data from mental health services to map availability and distribution. We analyzed the needs of human resources using professional register data and the national census. Results: The National Health Care Service (ESY, Conclusions: Our assessment identifies an established framework for a community-oriented, universally accessible mental health system, yet several barriers impede its full realization. These include an inconsistent primary healthcare system, a shortage of specialists in the public sector, imbalanced service distribution, lack of coordination among providers, underfunding, and absence of quality monitoring. We propose interventions to promote child and adolescent mental health in primary care, coordinate patient pathways, establish standards of care, and monitor performance.
