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

Transition from pediatric to adult healthcare is a critical period for adolescents and young adults (AYA) with sickle cell disease (SCD), often associated with increased morbidity. In Canada, healthcare transfer is mandated by Age 18, yet objective measures to predict transition outcomes are lacking. The Transition Readiness Assessment Questionnaire (TRAQ) is a self-administered, disease-neutral tool. Its French version (TRAQ-FR) has been administered at the CHU Sainte-Justine (CHUSJ)-Centre Hospitalier de l'Université de Montréal (CHUM) SCD transition clinic since 2020. This retrospective cohort study aimed to describe TRAQ-FR scores in AYA Aged 16-18 years and to explore possible associations between transition readiness and transfer success/transition outcomes. Among 32 participants, the median TRAQ-FR completion age was 17.9 years, with an overall score of 3.5 [2.2-4.6]. The highest-scoring domain was
