Axis by axis
rubric value 1–5 · ? could not verify (no points, not a negative finding) · — not applicable: this country has no register of that class · OFF official register · SEC secondary source
| Axis | Finding (rubric anchor) | Value | Source class | Weight | Checked |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| M1 | Specialist certification of the responsible physician Found, status current; the registered specialty matches what this physician advertises. Albo OMCeO Napoli member detail: specialty title Chirurgia Plastica (29/10/1993); registration on the Albo Medici Chirurghi since 15/04/1988, number 23307. [albo] |
OFF | 26 | 2026-08-30 | |
| M2 | Identifiability of the responsible physician Physician(s) named with role and tied to this address. Surgeon named with role and tied to the clinic. [site-chi] |
SEC | 16 | 2026-08-30 | |
| M3 | Basic medical licence Matched by name (surname stem and given name or initial; a second identifier where the name is ambiguous). Matched by name in the Albo OMCeO Napoli: registration number 23307, registered since 15/04/1988. [albo] |
OFF | 8 | 2026-08-30 | |
| M4 | Facility registration Could not verify — by its own definition this register does not cover this class of facility or this territory, so the axis is left out of the coverage calculation for this record. Not a negative finding. Reason: Register does not cover this class of facility or this territory. Last attempt: none_found, 22 September 2026 — § A: the register of this class does not cover this unit by its own definition (scopeGap in the map); previous state null retry. Campania — same scope gap; no authorisation number published. |
? | ? | 10 | 2026-09-20 |
| M5 | Legal-entity traceability The legal entity and its registration number are published by the clinic and matched in the register. |
OFF | 8 | 2026-08-30 | |
| M6 | Self-disclosure of identifiers Partial, without issuers. Company VAT number published; no physician registration number on the site. [site] |
SEC | 10 | 2026-08-30 | |
| M7 | Advertising honesty An unconditional absolute about the patient's future safety or the treatment outcome — zero risk, no complications, “100% safe”, “result guaranteed” — in the clinic's own rendered text (bright line; cap 65). Statement in the clinic's own Italian text. [site] brevettata dal Prof. Silvio Smeraglia per l'assenza di dolore |
SEC | 12 | 2026-08-30 | |
| M8 | Cross-locale consistency Could not verify — no points, counts against coverage, not a negative finding. Reason: Single language front. Last attempt: clinic_site, 17 September 2026 — one language front; no hreflang alternates or language links The clinic site publishes one language front; nothing to compare. |
? | ? | 5 | 2026-09-20 |
| M9 | Patient documents One. One of the five classes is published: the procedure pages state the recovery period and describe the discharge and how the post-operative signs subside. Pages loaded: home, chi-siamo, chirurgia-estetica, addominoplastica, falloplastica, ginecomastia, gluteoplastica, lifting-viso, liposcultura, mastopessi, mastoplastica-riduttiva, mastoplastica-additiva, otoplastica, rinoplastica, renuvion-j-plasma.

Score ceilings
- Outcome guarantee or ‘100% safe’-class statement — ceiling 65/100The clinic's own page https://www.smeraglia.clinic/ (it, 2026-08-30) states: “brevettata dal Prof. Silvio Smeraglia per l'assenza di dolore”. Under this methodology an outcome guarantee caps the score at 65.[site]
Ceilings are applied only from verified-false findings with the exact quote or register entry cited. The clinic has a right of reply; a statement with a source changes the data, a statement without one is shown next to it.

What we could not verify
- M4 · Facility registration — Register does not cover this class of facility or this territory
- M8 · Cross-locale consistency — Single language front
These cells score nothing and are not negative findings. A cell on a register that is closed to machine queries is left out of the coverage calculation; the others count against it. Each one names why it is empty; an attempt that did not complete is re-run in the next collection pass. If you can point to a public source, send it.
