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
backgroundHealth service transitions of child, adolescent, and young adult cancer survivors between paediatric and adult cancer care services are pervasively fragmented, resulting in poor coordination, reduced satisfaction, and adverse outcomes for cancer survivors and significant others (e.g., caregivers and family members). Numerous trials and clinical guidelines have been developed to support care transitions, but their convergence, divergence, and methodological quality remain unclear. To advance clinical practice and quality research about care transitions, a synthesis of trials and guidelines on child, adolescent, and young adult care transition across age-appropriate cancer services is required to inform future research, practice, guideline, and policy development.
methodsA systematic review (CRD420251029796) was conducted. Studies were identified from searches of six bibliographic databases, four trial registers, and grey literature. Inclusion criteria focused on clinical guidelines or trials published between January 2020 and April 2025 that addressed age-related transitional cancer care.
resultsA total of 3706 records were identified. After screening, 18 records met the inclusion criteria: 10 clinical guidelines, 4 completed trials, and 4 ongoing trials with registrations. While general recommendations between guidelines were consistent, they diverged in detail relating to their local contexts. Only two ongoing trials, and no completed studies, included independent control groups.
conclusionCompleted trials were limited and highly variable in approach, components, and outcome measures, suggesting regionally specific guidelines enhance relevance, applicability, and transition practices. Future research should develop core outcome sets for care transition trials to facilitate comparison of outcomes and should develop robust study designs, including control groups.
