The First 13 Years of "Percorso Giacomo": Patients' Outcomes.
Article in Children (Basel, Switzerland), 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
objectivesTo report the outcomes of a population of fetuses and neonates with life-limiting (LL) or life-threatening (LT) diagnoses leading to adverse prognoses cared for by a service of perinatal palliative care (PPC), the Percorso Giacomo (PG). STUDY
designThis is a single center retrospective cohort study of all fetuses and neonates prenatally or postnatally diagnosed with LL or LT conditions whose families opted to continue the pregnancy at IRCCS Policlinico di Sant'Orsola in Bologna, Italy, from 2013 to 2025.
resultsThere were 83 fetuses and/or neonates including 64 diagnosed prenatally and 19 postnatally with annual significant increments in number. All families encountered the PG team. Overall, the cohort demonstrated a very high cumulative rate of comfort care plan (90%) with high rate of redirection of goals of care from intensive to palliative.
conclusionsPG showed a significant growth over 13 years suggesting the strong need of a service of PPC. The continuity of care provided by PG facilitated parental decision-making process towards redirection of goals of care. The outcomes observed provided valuable insights related to the wide range of prognoses for each diagnosis that will enable more informed counseling in the future.
