Guidelines for the adoption of digital pathology in clinical pathology units recommended by the polish society of pathologists.
Guideline in Diagnostic pathology, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
These guidelines provide a clear and practical framework for the effective implementation of digital pathology (DP) in routine anatomical pathology practice. Digital pathology, defined as the digitization of microscope slide into high-resolution whole slide images, is transforming the diagnostic workflow by enabling remote access, improved image analysis, integration with artificial intelligence (AI), and enhanced data management. While digital systems are becoming increasingly integrated into pathology laboratories, the physical archiving of microscope slides remains a legal and procedural requirement in many countries, particularly for histological and cytological materials. As DP continues to evolve globally, the establishment of clear standards, technical requirements, validation procedures, and interoperability guidelines is essential to maintain diagnostic accuracy, patient safety, and system reliability. These recommendations address key technical, organizational, and legal aspects of DP implementation, with an emphasis on ensuring consistent quality and minimizing variability in diagnostic outcomes. The outlined approach supports the safe and effective adoption of DP as an integral element of modern digital healthcare.
