Design for a digital twin in clinical patient care.
Review in npj health systems, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers.
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
Digital Twins hold great potential to personalize clinical patient care, provided the concept is translated to meet specific requirements emerging from established clinical workflows. We present a general and unspecialized Digital Twin design combining knowledge graphs and ensemble learning to reflect the entire patient's clinical journey and assist clinicians in their decision-making. Such a design is predictive, modular, evolving, informed, interpretable and explainable, thus opening broad clinical applications.
