Integrated care pathway for the management of diabetic foot disease: a position statement from the Italian Diabetic Foot Study Group.
Article in Acta diabetologica, 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
Diabetic foot is one of the most serious chronic complications of diabetes mellitus and reflects the systemic burden of the disease. Preventive strategies and structured management pathways are therefore essential elements of diabetes care. Lifetime occurrence of foot ulceration has been reported in nearly one-third of individuals with diabetes, and these lesions account for most non-traumatic lower-extremity amputations. Furthermore, the estimated five-year mortality following ulceration is 30%. This document aims to ensure an appropriate, multidisciplinary care pathway for patients with diabetic foot, tailored to clinical complexity and aligned with the different levels of care of Italian diabetes centers. The integrated model of diabetic foot care is based on the level of care that diabetes centers (local and hospital) can provide, including available personnel, expertise, and diagnostic and therapeutic resources to manage varying degrees of clinical complexity. Accordingly, three levels of care complexity, low, medium, and high, have been defined, with corresponding key diagnostic and therapeutic activities and healthcare professionals involved.
