TRANSITION of Pediatric Liver Transplant Patients to Adult Care: a Review.
Review in Current gastroenterology reports, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
purpose of reviewMany pediatric liver transplant patients are surviving to adulthood, and providers have come to recognize the importance of effectively transitioning these patients to an adult hepatologist. The review aims to analyze the most recent literature regarding patient outcomes after transition, barriers to successful transition, recommendations from clinicians and medical societies regarding transition programs, and to provide personal insights from our experience in transitioning liver transplant recipients. RECENT
findingsWhile results were variable between studies, many recent reports show significant morbidity and mortality in patients following transition to adult care. Medical non-adherence is frequently seen in adolescents and young adults both prior to and after transition, and is consistently associated with higher rates of rejection, graft loss, and death. In general, transplant programs with a formal transition process had better patient outcomes though recent findings are mostly-single center and direct comparison between programs is difficult. Societal recommendations for how to create a transition program contain a number of common themes that we have categorized for easier understanding. Successful transition is vital to the continued health of pediatric liver transplant patients. While an effective transition program includes a number of key components, it should be individualized to best function within a given transplant center. Here, we have reviewed a number of recent single-center retrospective studies on transition, but multi-site retrospective or prospective data is lacking, and is a fertile area for future research.
