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

backgroundThe transition from Child and Adolescent Mental Health Services (CAMHS) to Adult Mental Health Services (AMHS) presents significant challenges for young people with eating disorders and their families. These transitions often occur during critical periods of neurological, social-emotional development, and major life changes, all of which can influence broader psychosocial and treatment outcomes. This study represents the initial phase of a broader co-production project aimed at developing a new intervention model, Transition for Eating Disorder Youth intervention (TEDYi), and explored the lived experiences of young people, carers, and mental health professionals during transitions.

methodsFifteen semi-structured interviews were conducted with young people (n = 6) and carers (n = 9), alongside two focus groups involving 12 mental health professionals. These took place across six NHS sites in England, including two adult and four adolescent specialist eating disorder services.

resultsThe data were analysed with Reflexive Thematic Analysis (RTA) which revealed four key themes: navigating the complexity of transitions, we need carers involved, the shadow of separation, and suggestions for the TEDYi intervention related to coping strategies and self-management.

conclusionsThese findings have significant clinical implications for transitional care, emphasising the need for a more standardised and supportive approach to the transition from CAMHS to AMHS. The forthcoming intervention model seeks to address these challenges, with this study helping to prioritise key areas identified by TEDYi, which has been endorsed as a preparatory resource for enhancing clinical practice.
