The CLEMENS system provides the translational bridge between the clinical activity and its projection into and from clinical research, enabling the in-depth and multivariate evaluation of all clinically measured aspects. We discuss how research outcomes can feed back into the clinical activity, allowing for more accurate patient evaluation, diagnostic stratification, and car
