Bridging the Generational Divide in Kidney Health Care Transition Preparation: Adapting to Gen Z and Alpha in a Digital Age.
Review in Journal of the American Society of Nephrology : JASN, 2026. 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
Health care transition from pediatric-focused to adult-focused nephrology care comes with significant challenges for adolescents/young adults with kidney disease, their caregivers, and the pediatric-focused and adult-focused practitioners. As younger generations enter this period, transition preparation strategies need to better align with their preferences for autonomy and digital fluency. This scoping review focused on several structured protocols, such as the Recognition, Insight, Self-Reliance, and Establishment of Healthy Habits to Transition model; Self-Management and Transition to Adulthood with R x ; ON Taking Responsibility for Adolescent/Adult Care; Ready Steady Go/Plain Language, Engagement, Empathy, Empowerment, Respect; and others, evaluating their adaptability to younger generations' preferences. This review also highlights barriers posed by emerging technological tools, such as limitations of resources and inconsistent physician coordination. Finally, the role of caregivers is explored, underscoring the importance of early preparation to foster independence and address transition preparation needs. Ultimately, successful preparation and transfer of care require the development of thoughtful and equitable digital tools. Adjusting protocols to meet the expectations of adolescents and young adults may improve adherence and long-term outcomes after their transfer to adult-focused health care.
