Regulation and criminal law enforcement in healthcare: an uneasy alliance or partners in crime?
Article in BMC health services research, 2026. 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
This paper reports on research on the collaboration between the regulator and criminal law enforcement in the healthcare sector. Based on observations of consultations between the regulator and criminal law enforcement in The Netherlands, two underlying factors are distinguished that create challenges in this collaboration: practical issues and ideological differences. The divergent ideologies and values between regulation and criminal law enforcement hinder an integrated approach to incidents in healthcare. We argue that articulating and valuing these ideological differences would create an opportunity for mutual disciplinary enrichment. An interdisciplinary approach to incidents in healthcare could mitigate the inherent biases of both actors and thus provide otherwise unseen opportunities to prevent similar future incidents. By doing so, the regulator and criminal law enforcement could work towards a form of collaboration regarding incidents in healthcare that does justice to the interests of both the patients, the healthcare sector and society.
