FAIR4prep: FAIR clinical informatics data preprocessing in artificial intelligence applications.
Article in Scientific data, 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
Reproducibility of machine learning applications in clinical informatics heavily relies on data preparation. However, preprocessing pipelines are not systematically reported in a consistent, standardized way, limiting adaptability and reproducibility when code and datasets are shared. To address this gap, we propose a set of best practices that define minimum, actionable principles for reporting preprocessing in clinical informatics, aligned with the FAIR principles, which stand for Findable, Accessible, Interoperable, and Reusable. Our framework encourages transparent, consistent, FAIR reporting of data preparation steps, making pipelines easier to understand, reuse, and compare across studies. We present FAIR4prep, a JSON-LD schema that operationalizes the machine-readable implementation of these best practices for FAIR-alignment preprocessing. By establishing a shared baseline for preprocessing documentation, this work aims to improve reproducibility, facilitate collaboration, and support more reliable translation into clinical settings.
