Perceived Readiness and Barriers to Self-Management in Pediatric Atopic Dermatitis Patients and Parents.
Article in Pediatric dermatology. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
backgroundAdolescents and young adults (AYA) with atopic dermatitis (AD) must transition from caregiver-led to self-managed care and eventually to adult healthcare providers. While transition readiness is well studied in other chronic conditions, it remains underexplored in AD. This study assesses transition readiness and perceived barriers to self-management among AYA with AD and parents of AYA.
methodsA cross-sectional, online survey was conducted from June to July 2024 by the National Eczema Association among US-based AYA (ages 12-22) with AD and parents of AYA with AD. Transition readiness was evaluated using the Transition Readiness Assessment Questionnaire (TRAQ 6.0). TRAQ scores ≥ 4 indicated transition readiness. Parent-reported TRAQ scores assessed perceptions of their child's readiness. Group comparisons used t-tests and Chi-square tests.
resultsOf 307 respondents (211 AYA, 96 parents), AYA were older (18.8 vs. 16.2 years, p < 0.001), and more likely to be female (72.0% vs. 57.3%, p < 0.001) than the children of parent respondents. Mean TRAQ scores were higher for AYA than parents (3.94 vs. 2.98, p < 0.001). After stratification, AYA scores remained higher for both adolescents (3.33 vs. 2.58, p < 0.001) and young adults (4.16 vs. 3.78, p = 0.008), with the largest discrepancy in appointment keeping. Older age, lower AD severity, and specialist care were associated with higher readiness (TRAQ ≥ 4). Most respondents rated self-management as very important (89.6%), though only 40.3% felt very/extremely confident. Top barriers included fear of treatment side effects (AYA 53%) and disease variability (parents 36%).
conclusionsAYA report greater transition readiness than parents perceive. Structured transition planning involving both groups may improve alignment and confidence in AD self-management.
