Youth feedback through emotional mapping in the Transition to Adulthood through Coaching and Empowerment study.
Article in Health care transitions, 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
Background: Youth with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) and juvenile idiopathic arthritis (JIA) face challenges transitioning to adult care due to physiological and psychosocial impacts of their disease. Current transition care models vary, and few have been comprehensively evaluated. Previously, we conducted a feasibility randomized-controlled trial (TRACE - Transition to Adulthood through Coaching and Empowerment) testing a Transition Coach Intervention (TCI) supporting youth with JIA and IBD transitioning to adult care. Involving youth as research partners is critical in developing and evaluating transition interventions. Objective: To evaluate youth satisfaction and feedback on the TCI to inform future study methodology. Methods: We conducted an emotional mapping exercise to identify emotions youth felt regarding the feasibility study and TCI. In virtual focus groups, participants answered questions about study recruitment, logistics, and transition coaching sessions. To support explaining and recalling their experiences, participants selected responses including: comfortable, supported, safe, worried, confused, frustrated and other. Identifying their emotions supports participants in explaining their experiences. Results: Eight individuals (n = 4 female, ages 18-19 years, n = 5 IBD) participated in two focus groups (n = 4 each). Participants felt comfortable with the study's recruitment process. All TCI group participants reported positive feelings, though one felt overwhelmed by the amount of information in one session, and two found the psychologist sessions redundant. Conclusions: Feedback from the emotional mapping exercise indicates the acceptability of the TRACE study among youth with JIA and IBD. This feedback is critical for planning a larger trial to evaluate the effectiveness of transition coaching in youth with chronic diseases.
