Transition Guide Dissemination to Foster Patient-Care Team Conversations: A Childhood Arthritis Rheumatology Research Alliance Transition Learning Collaborative Pilot Implementation Study.
Article in ACR open rheumatology, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
objectiveUptake of evidence-informed health care transition processes among pediatric rheumatologists is low despite poor outcomes of transition from pediatric to adult care. We piloted a learning collaborative model to implement transition guides. We dually assessed implementation outcomes and changes in reported patient-care team discussions about transition.
methodsThis was a type II hybrid effectiveness-implementation pilot study of transition guide dissemination to patients at least 14 years old with rheumatic conditions across nine pediatric rheumatology centers in the Childhood Arthritis Rheumatology Research Alliance Transition Learning Collaborative. We evaluated implementation outcomes (feasibility, adaptations, and fidelity) and the proportion of patients surveyed that reported having discussions with their care team regarding transfer planning.
resultsSix sites were retained through the COVID-19 pandemic (below 70% target). Five out of six sites contributed outcome data (met 80% target) but with substantial heterogeneity in how transition guides were shared (eg, in-person, electronic messages, and posted flyers), and data were collected. The pooled proportion of respondents having discussed transfer planning with their care team was 39% preimplementation (n = 239; 95% confidence interval [CI] 32%-46%) and 55% postimplementation (n = 864; 95% CI 36%-73%). After implementation, there were significant increases in the likelihood of respondents recalling receiving a transition guide (odds ratio [OR] 2.58, 95% CI 1.35-4.92) and discussing transfer planning (OR 2.14, 95% CI 1.30-3.52), adjusted for age and site of care.
conclusionTransition guide dissemination is a simple intervention associated with increased awareness among young people with rheumatic conditions and discussions with their care team about transition preparation. The learning collaborative model facilitated identification of several dissemination strategies adaptable to site-specific resources.
