1 · What the graph read from 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.

2 · The registry

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

Objective: The time during which adolescents and young adults (AYAs) living with Type 1 Diabetes (T1D) transition from pediatric to adult care is associated with blood sugar levels outside of target ranges, care gaps, and an increased risk of acute diabetes complications. The aim of this study was to understand (1) the perspectives of AYAs and providers about the strengths, challenges, and opportunities of transition care and (2) the role of digital technologies in supporting the transition to adult care. Results: We identified three themes. First, transition care is not standardized and varies widely, and there is a lack of awareness of transition guidelines. Second, virtual care can simultaneously hinder and help relationship-building between providers and AYA. Third, AYAs value a holistic approach to care; both HCPs and AYA highlighted the opportunity to better support overall mental wellbeing. Conclusions: The design of digital technologies to support T1D transition care should consider methods for standardizing holistic care delivery and integrating hybrid diabetes care visits to support access to transition care. These findings can inform future transition intervention development that leverages existing transition guidelines, targets holistic care model integration, and considers quantitative diabetes metrics in conjunction with broader life experiences of AYA when providing transition care.
