Mapping Randomized Controlled Trials of Family- and Community-Centered Healthcare Interventions for Pediatric Asthma, Type 1 Diabetes, or Juvenile Idiopathic Arthritis-A Scoping Review.
Review in Children (Basel, Switzerland), 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
backgroundFamily and community are key support sources for children and adolescents with chronic illnesses. This study aimed to map the characteristics of family- and community-centered interventions for pediatric chronic somatic disease.
methodsThis scoping review followed the Arksey and O'Malley guidance. Through a systematic search in Medline (PubMed), EMBASE, PsycINFO, Cochrane, and CINAHL, free web sources, the gray literature, and citations, we identified publications of randomized controlled trials evaluating family- and community-centered interventions for children aged 0-17 years with asthma, type 1 diabetes, or juvenile idiopathic arthritis. Two or more reviewers independently conducted screening, verification of machine-assisted data extraction, risk-of-bias assessment, and narrative synthesis.
resultsOf 7285 items identified, we included 76 publications on 71 interventions comprising 16,342 participants (median n = 157; IQR 81-303; range 12-1316) with a median age of 9 (range 0-19) years. Interventions incorporating educational, psychosocial, and care-coordination elements targeted asthma (68%), type 1 diabetes (29%), and juvenile idiopathic arthritis (3%) that had lasted ≤6 months (63%) and were delivered in person (83%) by healthcare professionals (62%). Primary outcomes included symptom burden (44%), coping with the disease (24%), disease control (20%), activity participation, child psychosocial functioning, medication or healthcare use (18% each), or child quality of life (17%). Usual care (59%) and other treatment (31%) were frequent comparators.
conclusionsMost interventions were short-term, healthcare professional-led multicomponent programs compared with usual care. Primary outcomes targeted symptom management and disease control. Mixed diagnoses, peer support, family activities, and non-professional delivery were uncommon. This study identified gaps in diagnosis coverage and the need for additional high-quality studies.
