Hidden Dimensions in Clinical Ethics Consultation.
Article in Journal of bioethical inquiry, 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
Clinical Ethics Consultation addresses ethical questions, conflicts, and dilemmas in healthcare. This article argues that there are ethical dimensions in Clinical Ethics Consultation that are difficult to identify and need to be addressed additionally in Clinical Ethics Consultation models. Despite the diverse models and instruments developed across different regions, existing approaches often do not explicitly address these dimensions. The article illustrates the following critical hidden dimensions: issues of power and knowledge, pointing to structural and epistemic injustices, as well as further epistemic issues of implicit biases and subjectivity, intersectional discrimination, and limited participation of patients and their relatives. We argue that improving practice requires greater awareness of these hidden dimensions, consultant self-reflexivity, epistemic humility, and the implementation of specific strategies to mitigate power imbalances, thereby better fulfilling the goal of Clinical Ethics Consultation to support nuanced ethical decision-making.
