A Multi-Dimensional Analysis of the Changing Role of Clinical and Community Pharmacists in Romanian Healthcare.

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
Community and hospital pharmacists in Romania are valuable to healthcare, but their involvement in multidisciplinary teams is still not up to the mark when measured against international standards. A systematic literature review search was conducted using the PubMed, Embase, Web of Science, and Scopus databases, following the PRISMA 2020 guidelines, complemented by a bibliometric analysis with VOSviewer, to identify research trends and key contributors in the field. This review examines studies such as counseling effectiveness, clinical contribution, and professional obstacles faced by pharmacists in Romania published between 2014 and 2025 that mainly focus on community practice, integration into hospitals, and new areas such as pharmacogenetics and pharmacovigilance. The studies surveyed patients on how they evaluated counseling, tracked clinical pharmacists who adjusted drug doses through therapeutic monitoring, checked whether healthcare professionals followed safety warnings, and checked management systems within institutions. High costs and the removal of pharmacovigilance from compulsory university courses add to the obstacles. Romanian pharmacists already possess the knowledge or skills to raise treatment success and shield patients from unsafe self-medication through timely clinical advice. To use this capacity fully, the system must change, including health insurance covering pharmaceutical services, compulsory updating of course content, and official interdisciplinary protocols for this potential to be fully exploited.
