Transition readiness in middle and older adolescents with asthma and associated factors: a descriptive study.

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
objectiveAsthma is the leading chronic health condition in adolescents, yet little is known about adolescents' readiness to transition into adult-focused care. This study examines transition readiness in middle and late adolescents with asthma.
methodsThis cross-sectional descriptive study was conducted in 2019 with 41 adolescents (16-20 years old) with asthma. Transition readiness was measured with the 20-item Transition Readiness Assessment Questionnaire (TRAQ), which comprises five subscales.
resultsSlight majorities of the sample comprised females (58.5%) and minority adolescents (56%). The sample's overall mean score on the TRAQ was 3.89 (±0.63; possible range 1-5). Managing daily activities was associated with talking with providers subscale (
conclusionsOverall transition readiness is suboptimal in middle to late adolescents with asthma. Adolescents' capacity to manage daily activities is not a valid indicator of transition readiness in disease self-management. It is important to consider gender, race, and asthma control in understanding transition readiness in adolescents with asthma.
