Transitional Care for Adult Patients with Congenital Heart Disease.
Review in Internal medicine (Tokyo, Japan), 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
The prognosis of congenital heart disease (CHD) has improved, and most patients now reach adulthood. Owing to residual disease and comorbidities, it is recommended that adult CHD (ACHD) patients transition to adult care for lifelong monitoring and treatment. However, this transition period can be challenging for CHD patients owing to obstacles such as independence from their parents and establishing self-management. To achieve a seamless shift from pediatric to adult care and ensure continuity, it is important to educate and motivate patients appropriately, and an established transition system is needed that involves collaboration between CHD specialists and healthcare providers across medical specialties. The present review describes the epidemiology of ACHD and notable points in patient care as the background of transition. The concepts and an overview of transition systems, educational systems, and potential lapses in the care of their relevant causes are then provided with supporting evidence.
