Exploring Cross-Sectional Predictors of Suicide Ideation, Attempt, and Risk in a Large Online Sample of Transgender and Gender Nonconforming Youth and Young Adults.
Article in LGBT health, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 37 papers.
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
purposeRates of suicide ideation and attempt appear to be particularly high in the transgender and gender nonconforming (TGNC) population, yet little is known about which factors are the most salient contributors for TGNC young people and how these contributors vary across suicide-related outcomes.
methodsWithin the largest sample of TGNC young people to date (N = 1896; ages 14-30), we examined the contribution of demographics (age, assigned sex, gender identity, sexual orientation identity, race/ethnicity, and socioeconomic status), minority stress (gender-related affirmation, gender-related self-concept, victimization, and gender-affirming medical treatment desire/access), social support (from family and friends), and depressive symptoms in the cross-sectional prediction of three suicide-related outcomes: past-year attempt, past-year ideation, and a composite measure of suicide risk.
resultsEach set of factors explained significant variance in each outcome; however, only several predictors remained significant in each of the full models. Gender-related victimization and depressive symptoms were independent predictors for all three outcomes. Additional predictors varied across outcome. Age, male identity, sexual orientation-based victimization, and friend support were associated with suicide attempt. Age, queer identity, gender-related self-concept negativity, and family support were associated with suicide ideation, and pansexual identity and gender-related self-concept negativity were associated with positive suicide risk screen.
conclusionPrevention and intervention efforts aimed at building support and positive self-concept, decreasing victimization, and treating depression are likely to partially reduce suicide ideation and attempt in TGNC adolescents and young adults. Comprehensive interventions with younger adolescents are particularly critical.
