Abstract
BACKGROUND: Rare diseases pose transitioning challenges owing to limited provider expertise and changing healthcare systems. The timeframe and developmental changes of emerging adulthood overlap with the transition of patients with cystinosis from pediatric to adult-oriented healthcare. METHODS: This study utilized techniques of qualitative grounded theory to explore the experiences of adults aged 18-47 with cystinosis, and their parents, with a focus on the transition to adulthood and adult-oriented care. Forty-six individuals from 21 families were recruited online and at cystinosis conferences to participate in focus groups and/or individual interviews. The constant comparative method was used to conduct both line-by-line and focused coding of verbatim transcripts. RESULTS: The following elements were reported to be critical to the transition to adulthood and adult-oriented care: gaining skills and responsibility for disease management, progressing toward autonomy while remaining connected to caregivers, and having strong communication with and between providers. CONCLUSIONS: Data analysis identified behaviors and relationships that support and/or threaten autonomy and treatment adherence. Participants described institutional, relational, and practical barriers to transition. Suggestions for improving transitioning include: identifying patient/family strengths and improving pediatric-adult provider partnerships and communication. Further research is needed into the experience of patients before and after transition to adult-oriented care.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
