1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

Transition from pediatric to adult health care setting is a challenge for young patients because of the psychosocial issues they may present that could hinder their commitment to treatment and medical care. Psychologists play a key role in supporting these patients. They intervene with the most vulnerable ones for whom the current transitional practice does not necessarily meet their specific needs and help them to develop an appropriate level of autonomy despite medical condition. To date, few studies have described their clinical practice in this field. This study aimed to gather in-depth information about the elements that characterize their different roles in transition care. Following a semi-structured interviews with ten pediatric psychologists, we conducted a thematic content analysis to identify common themes among participants. The results indicate that the psychologists' practice focuses on four main aspects: assessment, intervention, education, and liaison. Their recommendations point towards a better organization of health care services and a reflection on the best practices in psychology. These results highlight the specific roles that pediatric psychologists play in the transition process within the health care environment.
