Navigating the transition: a multidisciplinary approach to inflammatory bowel disease in children.
Observational study in Pediatric surgery international, 2024. 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
purposeA multidisciplinary approach to Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD) has recently demonstrated a positive impact in pediatric patients, reducing dropout rates and facilitating the transition to adult care. Our study aims to evaluate how this approach influences disease activity, dropout rates, and transition.
methodsWe conducted a longitudinal observational study including all patients diagnosed with IBD during pediatric-adolescent age, with a minimum follow-up period of 12 months. For each patient, endpoints included therapeutic approach, need for surgery and transition features.
resultsWe included 19 patients: 13 with Ulcerative Colitis (UC) and 6 with Crohn's disease (CD). Most patients required multiple lines of therapy, with over 50% in both groups receiving biological drugs. Compliance was good, with a single dropout in each group (10, 5%). The need for surgery was significantly higher in the CD group compared to the UC group (16% vs. 7.7%, p < 0.01). Mean age at transition was significantly higher in the UC group compared to the CD group (19.2 ± 0.7 years SD vs. 18.3 ± 0.6 years SD, p < 0.05).
conclusionsIn our experience, the multidisciplinary approach to IBD in transition-age patients appears effective in achieving clinical remission, offering the potential to reduce therapeutic dropouts.
