Paediatric Preference Prediction: the Future of Decision-Making for Children?
Article in Neuroethics, 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
Adolescents sometimes express firm views about high-stakes medical decisions that conflict with those of their caregivers or clinicians, raising difficult questions about how much weight their wishes should carry. A recurring concern is whether such decisions will later be regretted, although the normative significance of future potential regret remains hotly debated. Recent work in adult bioethics has proposed using artificial intelligence-based Personalized Patient Preference Predictors (P4s) to estimate what current treatment incapacitated adults would have chosen based on their known or inferred preferences when last autonomous. This paper explores whether, and with what ethical significance, a parallel 'Paediatric Personalized Patient Preference Predictor' (P5) could be applied to children and young people. We analyse how predicted
