Decentralized Clinical Trials in Pediatrics: Is Italy Ready?
Article in Journal of clinical medicine, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Driven by technological advances and regulatory developments, the clinical trials industry is undergoing a period of transformation. Decentralized clinical trials (DCTs) promise to streamline processes, increase participant engagement and improve data quality. The pediatric clinical trial landscape is challenging, as participation in a clinical trial affects the whole family. DCTs allow for increased patient engagement, thereby improving trial quality and consequently drug safety. The Italian Medicines Agency (AIFA), in its quest for regulatory simplification and alignment with the European framework, has established comprehensive guidelines to facilitate these decentralized trials. The present work aims to delve into the regulations to understand the feasibility of conducting decentralized pediatric trials in Italy.
