Advancing Whole-Person Health through Informatics: A Narrative Review of Knowledge Resources for Complementary and Integrative Health.
Review in The Journal of nutrition, 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
backgroundComplementary and integrative health (CIH) interventions, including nutritional strategies, are widely used to support whole-person health, yet evidence on their efficacy, safety, and mechanisms remains fragmented.
objectivesThis narrative review mapped existing CIH knowledge resources, identifies critical gaps, and highlighted challenges in interoperability and integration. We proposed artificial intelligence-driven informatics strategies to standardize, connect, and leverage these resources, with the goal of advancing discovery, precision nutrition, and personalized approaches to health and well-being.
methodsWe conducted a narrative review of publicly available knowledge resources on complementary health interventions, focusing on their effectiveness, safety, and biological mechanisms, including the microbiome. Interventions were categorized as nutritional, physical, or psychological. Resources were then classified as knowledge bases, datasets, databases, ontologies, knowledge graphs, platforms, or initiatives, with summaries of their scope, functionality, and contributions.
resultsWe identified 47 resources that can support complementary and integrative health informatics (15 knowledge bases, 13 databases, 7 datasets, 4 platforms, 3 initiatives, 3 ontologies, and 2 knowledge graphs). Categories included nutritional interventions (32, with 13 on the microbiome), physical interventions (4), psychological interventions (3), and comprehensive or multimodal resources (7). Most resources (39) were publicly available.
conclusionsAdvancing whole-person health requires greater standardization and integration of knowledge resources, which in turn enables more effective application of artificial intelligence and informatics methods. When well-structured, interoperable resources are coupled with these computational methods, they can unify diverse knowledge domains, advance the science of complementary and integrative health, and accelerate discovery in personalized nutrition.
