Comprehensive adolescent healthcare transition program for congenital adrenal hyperplasia: A quality improvement initiative.
Article in Health care transitions, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Background and significance: Congenital adrenal hyperplasia (CAH) is a genetic condition impairing adrenal steroid production, requiring lifelong steroid replacement, leading to decreased quality of life and a shortened lifespan. Preparing and supporting adolescents with CAH to develop health-related knowledge, skills, and decision-making during the pediatric-to-adult healthcare transition (HCT) is a priority. Many adolescents with CAH do not receive adequate HCT and do not attend follow-up care after transfer to an adult setting. The Comprehensive Adolescent Healthcare Transition (CAH-T) program was developed using CAH care guidelines and the Got Transition Six Core Elements of Healthcare Transition approach. Purpose: This quality improvement (QI) initiative aimed to evaluate clinicians' utilization and acceptance of the CAH-T program for addressing the HCT needs of adolescents with CAH in a southeastern United States pediatric endocrine clinic. Intervention: Baseline demographics, the Health Care Transition Feedback Survey for Clinicians, and the Current Assessment of Healthcare Transition Activities were measured using surveys adopted from Got Transition. Clinicians were educated on the CAH-T program and patient education materials. Following implementation, clinicians documented all CAH-T program-recommended interventions provided in the clinic. Surveys were reassessed using repeated measures. Evaluation: Twenty-nine clinicians participated. Eight separate patients received 53 total CAH-T program-recommended interventions during the three-month observation period. Paired assessment of the Current Assessment of Healthcare Transition Activities scores increased from 15.29 ± 8.32 to 24.00 ± 6.11 ( Implications for practice: A structured HCT program ensures clinicians provide adolescents with CAH support and guideline-based care. The CAH-T program offers an example of developing and implementing an HCT program for adolescents with CAH. Integration in the electronic medical record will ultimately increase program sustainability.
