Adolescent and Young Adult Perspectives on Quality and Value in Health Care.
Article in Academic pediatrics. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
objectiveTo describe adolescent and young adult (AYA) perspectives on defining quality and value in health care and to gain understanding of their knowledge of value-based payment.
methodsA text message-based survey was sent to a convenience sample of AYAs aged 14 to 24 in 2019. Participants were asked 4 open-ended questions: 1) how they would define "good health care," 2) what factors to consider in rating doctors, 3) whose opinions should matter most when rating doctors, and 4) the best ways to collect AYA opinions on doctors, and one yes/no question on their awareness of value-based payment. Analyses included descriptive demographic statistics and an inductive thematic approach with multivariable models comparing adolescent (14-18) and young adult (19-24) responses.
resultsResponse rate was 61.0% (782/1283). Most participants were White (63.3%), female (53.3%), and adolescents (55.6%). Common themes from the first 2 questions included accessibility (specifically affordability), coverage benefits, and care experience (including compassion, respect, and clinical competence). Young adults more commonly mentioned affordability than adolescents (54.4% vs 43.3%, P = .001) and more commonly felt their opinion should matter more than their parents when rating doctors (80.6% vs 62.0%, P < .001). Only 21.0% of AYAs were familiar with the potential value-based link between physician payment and care quality.
conclusionsWhen considering quality and value in health care, AYAs expressed their desired agency in rating the quality of their care and clinicians. AYAs' perspectives on health care quality, including the importance of care accessibility and affordability, should be considered when designing youth-centered care delivery and value-based payment models.
