The Transitioning From Pediatric to Adult Inflammatory Bowel Disease Services: A Qualitative Study of Adolescents and Their Parents
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Background: Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) often has its onset during late childhood and adolescence, a time of significant change. Young people may be required to transition from a pediatric to an adult IBD service during this time. The transition from pediatric to adult services can be a high-risk period for poor outcomes for emerging adults with IBD. We seek to understand the concerns of patients and carers during this period. Methods: Semi-structured interview and interpretative phenomenological analysis were used to explore the experiences of 16 young persons and 10 of their parents during transition. Results: The narrative analysis reflected the importance of three aspects of transition to the young people and their parents during transition. The process of adjusting to illness, parents letting go, and the young person "growing up" were key themes. Conclusion: In addition to patient needs, parental grief and adjustment may be easily overlooked in the transition period: children who only recently needed intensive parental care and involvement may now be seeking higher degrees of autonomy. These findings indicate a role for including psychological interventions addressing the well-being of parents in transition programs.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human 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 itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
