Italian Delphi Consensus on Maternity Care in Multiple Sclerosis: Toward an Interdisciplinary Model of Care.
Article in European journal of neurology, 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
backgroundReproductive health is a critical component of care for women with multiple sclerosis (MS), yet standardized interdisciplinary approaches remain limited.
objectivesThis Delphi consensus aimed to develop an interdisciplinary, evidence-informed care model tailored to the Italian healthcare system.
resultsA two-round Delphi process was conducted in Italy (June-July 2025), involving MS experts (Round 1: 107, Round 2: 95), including neurologists, gynecologists, pediatricians, nurses, and patient representatives. Participants evaluated key aspects of the reproductive care pathway, from preconception counseling to postpartum follow-up, to identify priorities and areas of agreement across disciplines. Strong consensus was achieved on the importance of early counseling, coordinated interdisciplinary management, and individualized treatment planning across the reproductive continuum. The central role of nurses in patient education was also emphasized. Divergence emerged regarding the continuation of specific therapies during pregnancy and the role of neonatal immunological monitoring following exposure to depleting agents, reflecting areas of ongoing uncertainty and limited evidence.
conclusionsThis consensus proposes the first interdisciplinary framework for reproductive care in MS within the Italian context. It emphasizes patient-centered decision-making, collaboration across specialties, and the integration of reproductive health into routine MS management. By identifying both shared priorities and unresolved challenges, it provides a foundation for more harmonized, evidence-informed clinical practice and future research.
