Factors influencing the healthcare transition in Chinese adolescents with inflammatory bowel disease: a multi-perspective qualitative study.
Article in BMC gastroenterology, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
backgroundThe development and implementation of the transition from pediatric to adult healthcare systems for adolescents with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) should consider stakeholders' perceptions. This study aimed to explore the factors influencing the transition of Chinese adolescents with IBD from the perspectives of patients, parents, and healthcare providers.
methodsA descriptive qualitative research was conducted. Purposive sampling was used to recruit 36 participants, including 13 patients, 13 parents, and 10 providers, from a tertiary pediatric IBD center, a tertiary adult IBD center, and the China Crohn's & Colitis Foundation in Zhejiang Province, China. Individual semi-structured interviews were used to collect data on facilitators and barriers to the transition process. Conventional content analysis was used to analyze the interview transcripts.
resultsNine primary themes were identified. Patients with young age, prolonged disease duration, severe disease, academic pressures such as the Gaokao, low level of disease acceptance, limited transition consciousness, low self-efficacy, poor transition communication, and inadequate medical transition system serve as barriers. While patients with the mentality of guilt towards their parents; parents with low education levels and intensive work schedules, high levels of disease acceptance, and situations of parent-child separation; stakeholders with high transition consciousness, high transition self-efficacy, and effective transition communication act as facilitators. Furthermore, community support and hospital guide services were also contributing factors during the transition.
conclusionsThis study offers comprehensive insights into the factors affecting the transition of Chinese adolescent IBD patients. The process is continuously influenced by stakeholders, community, and healthcare environments and policies. Identifying these factors provides healthcare providers with a reference for developing and implementing targeted transition interventions.
