Substance use and misuse among sexual and gender minority youth.
Review in Current opinion in psychology, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 56 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled it.
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
Sexual and gender minority youth are at greater risk for substance use and misuse compared to their heterosexual and cisgender peers. This select review of the literature found that recent studies continue to document disparities in substance use. These disparities are partially explained by general and unique stressors as well as social, interpersonal, and cultural factors experienced by sexual and gender minority youth. There are many gaps in the literature, including limited research on protective factors or interventions to prevent or decrease substance use. Despite emerging empirical literature over the past two years, more research is needed to address sexual and gender minority youth's greater risk for substance use. Innovative methodologies and interdisciplinary efforts are needed to help advance our understanding of disparities in substance use in order to reduce and eliminate them and create more affirming experiences for sexual and gender minority youth.
