Toward a holistic model of personalized and integrative medicine: The distinctive role of Persian medicine.
Article in Journal of Ayurveda and integrative medicine. 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
Modern personalized medicine is transforming healthcare by customizing treatments based on individual genetic, environmental, and lifestyle profiles. However, its application remains complex and often technologically intensive. Traditional systems, particularly Persian Medicine (PM), offer distinctive frameworks that align with and can enrich contemporary personalized care. Unlike other traditional systems, PM is grounded in a unique philosophical concept of health governed by Nature (Tabi'at)-an intrinsic healing force-and operationalized through the concept of temperament (Mizaj). In this article, we systematically review both classical sources and contemporary clinical research to explore how PM offers structured diagnostic methods, preventive principles, and therapeutic modalities. We present a descriptive comparative overview of PM, Ayurveda, and Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) and provide practical models of integration into modern healthcare. We propose that PM provides a philosophically coherent and empirically grounded model that complements genomic medicine while fostering truly patient-centered, integrative care. However, the evidence base remains nascent, and further high-quality research is needed to validate its integrative potential.
